Meng Ao was anxious.

Meng Ao had no choice but to be in a hurry. Although the war was not very smooth now, overall, he was still heading in a good direction.

If everything is as Bai Qi said, the Qin army can break through the Qishan defense line tonight and continue to go east.

After passing the Qishan defense line, we have initially entered the prosperous area of ​​the Guanzhong Plain.

My hometown is right in front of me, and the bravery of the 100,000 Qin soldiers is for this moment.

As a result, now you want to retreat?

Who can accept this?

Bai Qi looked at Meng Ao with a calm expression on his face, and just said lightly: "This is the order of the king."

Meng Ao seemed to have been poured with a large basin of cold water on his head, and it was cold from head to soles of his feet, and he lost his voice in an instant.

Yes, this is the order of the king.

How could the king's order be disobeyed by his ministers?

What's more, Meng Ao was originally the confidant general of the King of Qin, so his position was here.

Meng Ao sighed depressedly, suddenly remembered something, and another light flashed in his eyes: "By the way, we can still return after the night attack. Maybe the night attack can help us defeat the Zhao army, and in this way, the king will probably take it back."

Bai Qi was silent for a moment and said, "General Meng Ao, the night attack is meaningless. Go and send orders to withdraw the troops."

Meng Ao said in a lost voice: "Why!"

Meng Ao really doesn't want to withdraw his troops.

Although Meng Ao is just a Qi native, his future has been fought on the land of Guanzhong. This place is the second hometown for Meng Ao, and it has too many and very important significance.

After his real hometown, Qi State was destroyed by Zhao State, Qin State was the only hope that Meng Ao wanted to fight Zhao State.

But if we really give up Guanzhong, then Qin will never have any hope of fighting against Zhao from now on.

Bai Qi looked at Meng Ao and sighed softly: "General Meng Ao, I understand your eagerness, but you must know that what we can think of, can the King and Rang Hou not think of? Many people say that I, Bai Qi, have always ignored the lives and deaths of soldiers, but how do they know that the power of soldiers fighting is not a joke, and where can I win without paying casualties? But today is different. At least today, I, Bai Qi, don't have to let more soldiers of the Qin Dynasty kill their lives here. Do you... understand?"

Meng Ao was silent.

After a while, Meng Ao saluted Bai Qi: "The last general understands."

Bai Qi nodded calmly and said, "Then go."

Meng Ao turned around and left, only Bai Qi was left on the platform.

After a long time, a sigh came out of his mouth and soon completely dissipated in the air.

If it comes to unwillingness, how could Bai Qi have less unwillingness than Meng Ao?

Guanzhong is just Meng Ao's second hometown, but it is Bai Qi's real hometown!

The sharp sound of gold began to echo over the entire battlefield. After a brief pause, the soldiers of the Qin army quickly left the battlefield and retreated to the rear.

This scene naturally attracted Zhao Jun's attention immediately.

Beside Le Yi, the generals of Zhao State were talking about it: "What's going on? The Qin people are retreating now? It's still early before dark!"

"Can the Qin people be powerless to fight again, right?"

"It's impossible. The offensive is so strong that it doesn't seem like you are powerless to fight again."

Many people turned their attention to Le Yi. Le Yi was also a little surprised at first, but immediately the famous general of Zhao seemed to understand something and said lightly: "It seems that the Qin people should be withdrawing their troops. Well, in this way, this general doesn't have to retreat to Liangshan."

"Retreat?" The generals of the Zhao army were even more surprised.

In other words, the person who said this was the main general Le Yi, otherwise he would be criticized to death on the spot.

Anyone with some military knowledge can see that the Qin people are about to break through the Qishan defense line. Who will withdraw their troops when victory is in sight?

But since it was Le Yi said, everyone had to bury their doubts in their hearts. Who made Le Yi not only the main general, but also the absolute confidant of the king, and ranked among the general of Zhao State?

What surprised the generals of Zhao State was that after half an hour, the Qin army actually withdrew.

Standing on the high platform of the Zhao army camp, you can clearly see teams of Qin troops leaving behind the Qin army camp, and the direction of travel is the West.

If at the beginning, some people thought it was the Qin people's suspicious military strategy, then as time passed, everyone had already learned something through the facts that they understood in front of them - the Qin people really withdrew their troops.

So, the sound of pursuit appeared naturally.

"General, it's time to beat Qin's dogs without delay!"

"General, if you chase after him at this time, the Qin army will inevitably be defeated!"

"General..."

Le Yi coughed heavily and interrupted everyone's words: "Send the order to continue, and the entire army will be on guard tonight. No one will be allowed to leave the camp without the order of this general, otherwise military law will deal with it."

The generals of Zhao State were stunned and some people said unconvincedly: "General, but..."

"Nothing but!" Le Yi's tone increased, his eyes swept around the faces of all the General Zhao State in front of him, and said lightly: "Who wants to violate the general's order?"

A silence of elegance.

Le Yi nodded with satisfaction and said, "Then let's all scatter. Don't worry, there are still some battles. The Qiang people in Longxi County have also rebelled. There are also rebellions in the former places of Yiqiu in the middle and Yiqiu."

The generals dispersed awkwardly.

For Le Yi, the reason why he did not choose to continue pursuing was very simple, because Le Yi could not be sure whether this was a strategy or a trick that Bai Qi used to retreat to advance to attract Zhao army to attack.

Anyway, the king had already said in his letter that as long as Le Yi could defend Guanzhong, it would be a great achievement. Then why did Le Yi have to make more troubles and put himself and the 100,000 Zhao troops into a possible dangerous situation?

As Zhao He's confidant general, Le Yi actually grasped the ideas of his own king very accurately.

As a well-deserved giant today, since Zhao State has focused its main energy on the battlefield of the Central Plains, what the Guanzhong battlefield wants is not a surprise victory, but a word of stability.

To put it bluntly, it is "not seeking merit but seeking no mistakes". As long as there is no failure, then Qin will be a chronic death and there will be no chance to turn the tables.

This is also the reason why Zhao He ordered Le Yi to take charge of Guanzhong. After all, this is the most stable general among Zhao He's many confidants.

After watching the last Qin army sink into the afterglow of the sunset, Le Yi suddenly said to himself.
