Qin Dynasty: Sword Asks the Bright Moon

In the Zhao army camp under the city of Langmeng City, Li Mu, who was holding a scroll of bamboo slips in his hand, asked the Chuanxin soldiers under the commander's case: "Sima Qiu gathered his troops and went to the Hengshan Pass?"

"Reporting to the general, when I entered the secret road into Hengshan Mountain, Lord Sima had already left Dai County. At this time, he should have been blocked in front of the Hengshan Pass before the Qin army." The messenger said.

In the Hengshan and Taihang Mountains, although there are very few roads, there are not only a few mountain trails to walk on. However, most of them are small paths and dead paths that are difficult for even people to pass. If one or two people are walking, It was okay, and we could barely pass through the mountains and ridges, but once the number of people increased, it became a dead end, and the march was even more hopeless. At this time, the messenger who appeared in front of Li Mu was walking along the way. In the past, there was almost no one. Will go to the small road to come.

"Go down." Li Mu took back the bamboo slip. He already knew the contents of the letter. As for the rest, he didn't want to know anything else.

The messenger looked at Li Mu in astonishment. How could his general react like this? He was too calm, abnormally calm. But he was just a messenger. It was impossible for anyone to answer him. doubts.

At the same time that the messenger walked out of the big tent, Sima Shang, who had been Li Mu's deputy for these years, walked into the big tent.

"General, is there any news from the north?" Sima Shang, who is not only his superior and subordinate but also a good friend to Li Mu, asked directly.

"Daijun will not be saved." Li Mu, who was unusually calm in front of the messengers, could no longer hide his true feelings at this time when facing his friend and most proud deputy, and let out a long sigh.

"Why did the general say this? Although the three armies in the northern border are not strong in strength, after all, the territory is vast, hundreds of miles from north to south, and nearly a thousand miles from east to west. The Qin army is not only attacking the city, but just wants to go through the three northern borders in a short time. It will take a long time for the county to be established, so why did Daijun fall into the hands of the Qin army so quickly?" Sima Shang said in shock.

The three counties in the northern border of Zhao State are vast and sparsely populated. Although it is a shortcoming, it can sometimes be turned into its advantage. The vast area allows it to have ample room for maneuver when facing enemy attacks. As for countries like South Korea and Wei, they don’t even have a strategic depth.

In the north, even if the Qin army is on its way, it may not reach Dai County at this time, so how can it take down the entire Dai County?

"Look, that boy Sima Qiu has gathered his troops to fight against Yang Ming's dragon-riding imperial army." Li Mu threw the bamboo slips just now to Sima Shang.

Although Li Mu had been warning himself in his heart not to get angry, it was just out of reason. Sima Qiu was so smart that it made the already nearly collapsed situation in the north even more difficult to recover. How could Li Mu really have no emotions.

Sima Shang looked at the bamboo slip in his hand, and his eyebrows were already knitted together. He could only see half of the slip, and Sima Shang no longer wanted to look at it. Li Mu might only be angry, but Sima Shang still had more shame and anger, because Sima Qiu was For his nephew, Sima Qiu, to be where he is today, in addition to his own abilities, Sima Shang's face is also a very important factor.

It can be said that Sima Qiu's success or failure is related to his Sima Shang's face, but now...

Sima Shang forced himself to look at the slip again, hoping that he could see something different from it, but the text in the slip was really limited, and no matter how he looked at it, he could only see the same information.

Sima Shang lowered his arms dejectedly, but his palms were tightly clenched, and he almost gritted his teeth and said, "Shu Zi is not worthy of the big responsibility!"

"Once Dai County is lost, even the military capital of the Yan State will be completely blocked by the Qin Army. From now on, the three northern counties will no longer be owned by the Zhao State." Li Mu sighed. At this time, even if he is an invincible Zhao Guowu Anjun could only feel a deep sense of powerlessness.

There is no second way to the Yan State. At present, Li Mu has only one last option, which is to defeat Wang Jian and then invade Taiyuan County to threaten the Qin army's retreat from attacking the three northern counties and force The Qin army withdrew, but Wang Jian made a desperate defense. The Taihang Mountains were not so easy to pass through, and there were really not many opportunities left for Li Mu.

While Li Mu was thinking hard about how to break the situation, in front of the mountain pass at the northern foot of Hengshan Mountain, the forwards of the Qin army had already jumped out of the mountain road and formed a formation in front of the mountain. More than a thousand dragon cavalry forbidden troops formed a square formation. Although the number of troops was not large, although it lasted for a long time The long journey has consumed a lot of their physical strength and energy, but their momentum remains.

"The Dragon and Tiger Forbidden Army has a full strength of less than 30,000 people. The dragon riders are cavalry and the tiger guards are infantry. The battle in Dongjun was famous all over the world. A few years ago, when Qin and Wei attacked Chu, they were defeated in one hour. The most elite legion of Chu State, it can almost be regarded as the most powerful existence among the Qin army. Now it seems that it is indeed well-deserved. Just with this momentum, it is no weaker than the elite side cavalry under the general. ." Sima Qiu looked at the dragonriding imperial army in front and couldn't help but admired.

"Since we know that the enemy is very strong, we should avoid his sharp edges and use the city to defend ourselves. Why must we fight head-on?" Le Mo said to himself in his heart. He always felt that Sima Qiu was not very reliable.

Although he does not practice the art of war, the battle between warriors and the competition between armies in war have many similarities. Le Mo knows very well that when two people are fighting in close combat, too gorgeous tricks will not have better results. , on the contrary, because it is too gorgeous, the power will be dispersed in useless feints, so that the enemy will catch the flaw, and what Sima Qiu reminds him now is those who advocate gorgeous tricks.

At this time, Sima Qiu had so many calculations, but was it really necessary? Obviously we only need to block the Qin army in Hengshan Mountain, but now we are thinking about annihilating the Qin army's forwards. Is it too much? Too many tricks often means more flaws. Le Mo was thinking in his heart, but he couldn't say these words. He was self-aware and just thought that he was really a layman and couldn't see the deeper mystery.

"Lord Guardsman, under the banner ahead is the location of the general of the Zhao army." Feng Ao, the captain of the third battalion of the Dragon Cavalry Forbidden Army, pointed out the location of Sima Qiu among the Zhao army to Yang Ming who was walking out of the Hengshan Mountain Road.

"Sima? I am quite familiar with this surname. It seems that the general of the Zhao army is really Sima Qiu." Yang Ming looked at the Zhao army formation in front. Thousands of people lined up in the formation. The army was strong and there was naturally one side to give way to. The power of the Grandmaster to avoid.

"Is Sima Qiu planning to use his 10,000 people to defeat our 2,000 people?" Yang Ming, who had already judged Sima Qiu's true intention, couldn't help but laugh at this time.

Following the legend of Yang Ming's laughter, the dragonriding imperial troops on the left and right also showed smiles. The solemnity just now was reduced a bit. Now, half of their two thousand people have not left the Hengshan Mountain Road. With only a thousand cavalry, how could there be no dignity against the Zhao army with ten thousand cavalry?

However, with Yang Ming's laughter, the confidence from Yang Ming also spread.

"Zhao Jun wants to use ten thousand cavalry to deal with our two thousand cavalry. Do you think Zhao Jun has the advantage?" Yang Ming looked at the dragonriding forbidden troops on the left and right.

"What I want to say is that now, it is not Zhao Jun's thousands of cavalry against our thousands of cavalry, but our thousands of cavalry against Zhao Jun's general. It is Zhao Jun's general who is preparing to face our thousands of cavalry. From this moment on, we only have one The goal is to capture the general of the Zhao army." Yang Ming raised the Canglong Wentian Halberd in his hand. On the battlefield, the halberd was the real overlord of the military.

"Today, there will be another addition to the strategy of the Dragon and Tiger Forbidden Army. On the second day of April in the fifteenth year of the Qin Dynasty, the Dragon and Tiger Forbidden Army defeated the Zhao army with thousands of cavalry and thousands of cavalry at the foot of Hengshan Mountain, killing the Zhao army's general." Yang Ming shouted loudly, and with the blessing of his strong skills, this shout resounded in front of the two armies.

"Attack." As Yang Ming made a move with the big halberd in his palm, Yang Ming, without waiting for the follow-up Qianqi to arrive, directly urged the horses to rush towards the Zhao army's formation several miles away.

Qianqi followed Yang Ming closely. During the charge, they each adjusted their positions. The original goal had become a cone-shaped formation headed by Yang Ming. The momentum Qianqi unleashed at this time made Sima Qiu His heart trembled. From Yang Ming's words just now and from the Qin army's offensive momentum at this time, he could see that Yang Ming's real goal was himself. Thinking of the battle under Yanmen City ten years ago, Sima Qiu was While looking forward to and eager to defeat Yang Ming, he felt an uncontrollable chill.

"The heavy cavalry is in front, the bow cavalry is attacking to the west, and the light cavalry is covering." Sima Qiu put aside unnecessary thoughts and decisively ordered. At this moment, any extra thoughts are unnecessary, there is only one battle.

As Sima Qiu's command flag was waved, Daijun's most elite thousand-one-heavy five-armor cavalry had already gone into battle, and the ill-equipped light cavalry had also reined up.

"Attack." Sima Qiu gave the order, and the heavy armored cavalry of the Standing Commandery Mansion rushed towards the Qin army.

Sima Qiu watched the situation on the battlefield closely, but the distance of only a few miles was constantly being drawn closer by the charge of the cavalry from both sides. In the blink of an eye, both sides had already caught sight of each other.

At this time, Zhao Jun's archers had already bent their bows and set up arrows. The verbs that the wolf cavalry was good at were also good at Zhao Jun's side cavalry. Moreover, because of their better organization and better equipment, Zhao Jun's side cavalry The cavalry shooting ability is even better than that of the wolf cavalry.

As the bowstring trembled, countless arrows were shot towards the Qin army. The Qin army did not fight back, but raised its left arm and used the small shield prepared by the cavalry to block the deadly arrows. As for the insignificant places, They were too lazy to protect themselves, and the armor on their bodies was enough to protect them from fatal damage under the attack of Zhao Jun's archers.

Their goal at this time was to defeat the heavy cavalry of the Zhao army in front of them, break through the Zhao army's formation, and kill the Zhao army's general Sima Qiu.
