Qishan.

Bai Qi stood on his chariot and quietly stared at the Zhao army camp in the distance.

Countless horse-resisting, deer antlers and trenches were spread out of the camp, and behind these obstacles was the tall enough village wall of the Zhao people with a long range attack power.

On the wall of the village were many Zhao army crossbowmen, and countless arrows fell like raindrops, harvesting waves of Qin soldiers who were attacking.

The land was stained with blood, and the newborn grass was crushed to the point of being crushed by the corpses of the Qin army soldiers.

Facing this scene, all the Qin generals frowned.

After a while, Bai Qi slowly spoke: "Ming Jin, stop the troops."

Many Qin generals were surprised when they heard this and subconsciously looked at the sky above their heads.

It just passed by noon.

Someone turned his eyes to the deputy general Meng Ao on the side, but the only thing he could see on Meng Ao's face was serious.

Amid the sharp sound of gold, the soldiers on the front line of the Qin army who were attacking the Zhao army camp retreated like a tide, and a shocking cheer erupted from the Zhao army camp.

Amid the cheers, Zhao State Commander Le Yi looked at the scene with thoughts.

This was the fifth day after the Qin army launched an attack, but the Qin people still made no progress.

Bai Qi, is that only a little skill?

For some reason, Le Yi always had a vague uneasiness in his heart, but he could not find out where this uneasiness came from.

Le Yi calmed down and decided to write a letter back to Xianyang to remind Lin Xiangru.

If it is not a problem on the front line, then would it be the rear of Guanzhong?

Bai Qi and Meng Ao returned to the tent of the commander and sat down.

Meng Ao said with some concern: "General, you can't continue like this anymore. Le Yi is indeed a famous general in the world. He is much stronger than the likes of Bao Yuanmangmao. If you continue to attack like this, it will not be beneficial to the entire battle situation except to waste the lives of the Daqin soldiers."

Since his departure, although Meng Ao was the deputy general and the confidant of the King of Qin, he has always been quite low-key. He rarely sang against Bai Qi, and he can be said to have no sense of existence.

This is also the first time Meng Ao has put forward his opinion in front of Bai Qi.

Bai Qi looked at Meng Ao, his face moved slightly, and he showed a smile: "What General Meng Ao said is indeed reasonable. But please rest assured. I, Bai Qi, will naturally not do that useless contribution. Just wait for a few days, General Meng Ao will know the result."

Meng Ao wanted to speak but stopped, and finally bowed to Bai Qi and walked out of the tent.

Bai Qi looked at Meng Ao's leaving figure, looking indifferent, not knowing what he was thinking.

After a while, Bai Qi called his guard captain and handed a secret letter to the other party: "It's time, go."

After the guard captain left, Bai Qi sat alone, but his mind had already floated to the Central Plains thousands of miles away.

For Bai Qi, he never thought it was too difficult to defeat Le Yi, but this time, Qin State needed to rely on more than defeat Le Yi to conquer Guanzhong.

The battle between the Three Kingdoms coalition forces in the Central Plains and the Zhao State's Huangchi was the factor that really determines whether Qin State can retake the Central Plains.

If the Three Kingdoms coalition forces were defeated, even if Bai Qi could defeat Le Yi and take Xianyang, the young King Zhao would not need to panic at all. He just rushed to advance west again.

Although he was confident that he could defeat Le Yi, Bai Qi always felt powerless when facing the King of Zhao.

It was not that Bai Qi felt that his military talent was not as good as the other party, but that King Zhao seemed to be like a divine helper, either the chief general of the Qin army was incompetent, or he suddenly tinkered with heavy artillery, a weapon that was completely beyond anyone's imagination.

It is not a crime of war, it is not a crime of war.

After a long time, Bai Qi sighed deeply.

"I didn't expect that my great Qin Dynasty would have a day when I look at people's faces like this. Forget it, then just take one step at a time."

Huang Chi, the Three Kingdoms Alliance Camp.

When the sun rose, the soldiers of the Three Kingdoms coalition forces had breakfast, then began to line up and slowly retreated.

The orders of the chief general Qu Yuan have reached the ears of every grassroots soldier. They all know what their goal is today - retreat ten miles, wait for the Zhao army to cross the river, and then fight the Zhao army to decisively!

Mangmao had a clear look of worry on his face. He endured it and finally couldn't help but speak to Qu Yuan, "Qu Qing, can you really let the people of Zhao cross the river like this?"

Just on the surface of the Jishui River not far from the Three Kingdoms Alliance, three floating bridges have been built, and a Zhao army under the banner is slowly crossing the river.

Qu Yuan turned around and looked at Mangmao, smiling: "Mangqing, it's already this time, why bother to think about these things again? Let me let it go."

Han Wen watched coldly from the side and suddenly said, "Qu Qing, I have gone back to prepare for the war. If something happens, I will be notified if I have something to do."

Qu Yuan nodded slightly to Han Wen and smiled and said, "Please, Han Qing, this battle is closely related to the interests of the Three Kingdoms, and Han Qing also needs to help him."

Han Wen blinked at Qu Yuan and smiled and said, "Don't worry, Qu Qing, I still remember the agreement between us." After that, he drove away with a group of Korean generals.

Mangmao glanced at Han Wen's leaving back with some confusion, and then whispered: "Qu Qing, listen to me, this old Han Wen is deeply intent, and even Bao Yuan was killed by him. It must be unreliable at the critical moment."

Qu Yuan laughed silently and said to Mangmao: "Please don't worry Mangqing, Qu Yuan will pay attention to it."

In Qu Yuan's opinion, it is actually irrelevant for Korean to engage in power struggles. Anyway, that is a matter of Korean politics. What does it have to do with Qu Yuan, who is a Chu minister? As long as Korean can fight hard.

But this Mangmao...

Qu Yuan thought for a while and said to Mangmao: "Mangqing, I know you have some objections to my decision, but please think about it. Do we have any way out in this battle besides defeating Zhao? If you defend passively, the people of Zhao will probably come back next year. But I am bluntly speaking, it is really a big deal to say whether these four-country alliances can be organized next year."

Mang Mao's face changed when he heard this, and finally sighed helplessly: "Qu Qing is right, it's because I, Mang Mao, are not thinking. Please don't worry, Qu Qing, although there are only 50,000 troops left in this battle of the Great Wei Dynasty, I will definitely fight to the end and will definitely not disappoint you!"

Qu Yuan nodded vigorously and said, "Then please Mangqing!"

On the river surface, the vanguard of Zhao State general Le Cheng was wearing armor and led his frightened war horse to jump off the shaking floating bridge, and his feet fell on the ground again.

Although it was only a few minutes to cross the river, it was quite thrilling for Le Cheng, because he didn't know whether the Three Kingdoms coalition forces on the opposite side would suddenly launch an attack when he was halfway through the river.

After stepping onto the land on the south bank, Le Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, looked around at the hundreds of Zhao soldiers who had also stepped onto the south bank, and said in a deep voice: "Line immediately and be ready to fight at any time! Also, where is the red flag, stand up for me!"

Under Le Cheng's order, the Zhao army soldiers who had just crossed the river quickly formed a formation and took a fighting posture.

One after another, the Zhao soldiers who had just walked down the bridge began to merge into this formation, and the number of people began to increase under the flying red flag.

On the other side of the river, 200,000 Zhao soldiers were a little excited when they watched this scene.

Lian Po said yellingly, "I didn't expect that Qu Yuan on the opposite side was actually a bit bloody."

Zhao She frowned and stared at the river in front of her for a long time.

At the Central Military Office, Zhao He, the king of Zhao State, looked calm, but his thoughts were as fluctuating as the Jishui River in front of him.

Now, this period of time when crossing the river is also the most dangerous period for the Zhao army.

If the judgment of Zhuxian and Su Dai was wrong and Han Wen was just a fake surrender, then once Han Wen told Qu Yuan the whole story, Zhao's army might be attacked by the Three Kingdoms coalition forces when crossing the river, and they would be in vain to lose their troops and generals.

But, it’s time to come, how can you hesitate?

The human heart is the most difficult thing to calculate, and no one dares to say that he can be 100% sure of calculating others' hearts.

As long as you have a greater grasp of winning, it is enough!

Zhao He said lightly: "Send the order and the three armies cross the river!"

Under Zhao He's order, the three floating bridges that Zhao army temporarily built were suddenly overcrowded.

The three pontoon bridges correspond to the three armies of the left, center and right of Zhao, and batches of soldiers crossed the river on the pontoon bridge.

In addition to the floating bridge, there are many Zhao army ships on the river that keep going back and forth to speed up the transportation speed.

In the Three Kingdoms coalition formation ten miles away, Qu Yuan also had a serious face. He didn't know whether he was explaining to himself or others, so he said to himself: "In this way, the heavy artillery of Zhao State should be useless, right?"

Qu Yuan is not a fool, and he has already studied the Zhao army, which is now the most powerful army in the world.

In Qu Yuan's opinion, in addition to its strong combat power, the most terrifying thing about the Zhao army was not the thunder, but the heavy artillery that Zhao suddenly took out in the Hangu Pass station.

If even the walls of Hangu Pass could be collapsed, then armor and shields would be completely insignificant in front of Zhao's heavy artillery.

This is Qu Yuan’s biggest fear in this war.

Fortunately, Zhao's heavy artillery was not uncovered. Through inquiries about Korean and secret investigations by Chu, Qu Yuan basically felt that he had a cognition.

This heavy cannon is very heavy and very big!

This means that on a battlefield like this, heavy artillery should be difficult to transport across the river.

Even if it can, Qu Yuan did not think that Zhao State could get so many heavy artillery across the river in a short period of time.

Without the bonus of heavy artillery, the coalition forces would have eliminated a major advantage of Zhao in vain, which is a favorable situation.

In addition, the Zhao people crossed the river and fought with no rear. Once they fell into a stalemate and delayed, the possibility of victory in the coalition forces would become quite high.

If it is not very certain to defeat Qu Yuan, the State of Zhao, and to fight with Zhao, Qu Yuan feels that his problem should not be big.

Qu Yuan took a deep breath to calm his mood slowly.

The knowledge you get from paper is always shallow, and you must practice it yourself to know it.
