Qin Dynasty: Sword Asks the Bright Moon

Chapter 491 Are you so brave?

A group of Yan Kingdom's Qingqi came out from the south city gate. The wide and bright city gate made them rush out of the city gate very quickly. If the Qin army outside the city was really a rabble, they would really be beaten by them suddenly. The attack launched was very frustrating.

But is the Qin army really a mob? Obviously not.

At the moment when Yan Jun's Qingqi rushed out of Jicheng, the Qin Jun who were still digging holes outside the military camp to fill in the wooden piles put down their tools one by one, and their palms were already touching the halberds and iron shields beside them. There was no need at all. The generals gave too many instructions, and the soldiers on the periphery had already found their positions during the movement. An iron shield wall and a halberd jungle had appeared on the plain below Jicheng City.

At this time, the Yan army's light cavalry were able to rush to the front of the formation, but what they faced was no longer the 'rabble' they had imagined before leaving the city, which was difficult to form and defend, but had always existed in their concepts. The Tiger and Wolf Master.

But now it is too late for the Yan army's Qingqi to retreat. Since the charge has begun, the only thing waiting for the end is death, either the enemy's death or their own death.

With a scream of war horses, a Yan Army cavalry rushing at the front was stabbed through the skirt by the sharp blade of the Qin Army's halberd. As the halberd retreated, there was already an extra one on the ground. A corpse. In the blink of an eye, this corpse had been completely turned into a messy wreckage under the charge of friendly forces.

Amid the screams of the soldiers and the cries of the war horses, there is the collision of blood and steel and bronze. This is a war that can be called tragic, but has nothing to do with martyrdom.

In the military camp where the Qin army had begun to show its outline, Yang Ming looked at the two armies attacking on the outside and couldn't help but smile and said to the soldiers around him: "Is the Yan army still quite fierce?"

"The ignorant are fearless. How fierce they are now, how desperate they will be after a while, and how cowardly they will be when the army launches another attack." A commander of the Yulin Guards who has been surrounding Yang Ming said .

"You can't say that. Warriors should be respected. The strength may be greater or less, but the courage cannot be judged." Yang Ming said thoughtfully, "However, in response to this courage, let them seek benevolence." Ren, everyone, go and stretch your muscles, for in the subsequent siege battle, you will not have the opportunity you have now."

"Take your orders." In the high-spirited fighting spirit, there are cavalry galloping past.

"We really can't beat it." On the wall of Jicheng, King Yan looked at the battle outside the city. It was clear that the Qin army's infantry formation did not have the advantage, but the Yan army's light cavalry could not break through the halberds and iron. wall.

People were either impaled by halberds or hooked off horses. The tragedy was indescribable. Even from a distance, Yan Wangxi could smell the smell of blood and the pungent stench floating in the autumn wind. .

Is this the battlefield? Is this the Qin Army? The subsequent battlefield will be pushed to the city wall, and then the ferocious Qin army will no longer be an infantry formation of thousands of people, but tens of thousands of ferocious beasts.

At this moment, an uncontrollable doubt arose in Yan Wangxi's mind: Can Jicheng be defended?

In the sight of King Yan, with the addition of a Qin army cavalry, the Yan army cavalry was blocked and attacked, and the formation could no longer be maintained. Under the tragic casualties, when they left the city, they were cheered with enthusiasm and blessing. The will to fight suddenly collapsed at this moment. Death can make people burst out with unprecedented strength, but it can also make people completely collapse in fear.

Looking at the Yan army cavalry who only fled towards the city gate in the rout, King Xi of Yan quickly ordered: "Close the city gate tightly and never open the city gate."

No matter how stupid King Yan is, he knows that once the city gate is opened to allow the remaining soldiers to enter the city, the Qin army chasing behind him can also rush in. If the Qin army rushes into the city gate, the consequences will be unimaginable. The battle just now The absolute strength gap between the Yan army and the Qin army has been verified. Without the support of the city wall, Yan Wangxi would never have thought of how Jicheng could block the Qin army's attack.

However, there is obviously no need for Yan Wangxi to order such a thing. As a general, Yan Yi also understands the reason, and he has already done it.

The gates of Jicheng must not only be guarded, but also reinforced. These monarchs and ministers of Yan State have heard that Qin Army General Yang Ming can break open the city gates in one blow.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, the last Qingqi of the Yan army was shot and killed by the Qin army at the foot of Jicheng City. Unlike people like Yan Wangxi, the soldiers and civilians of Jicheng who defended the city had a completely different mood, especially those who had imagined before The libertines who were thinking about their future and how they could stand out in the war felt as if they had been poured cold water from three winters directly on them. Their enthusiasm gradually disappeared and was replaced by fear.

At this time, the Qin army has become a savage beast in their eyes. Fearlessness based on ignorance can certainly fill the courage for a while, but when the ignorance is broken, that fearlessness will only fall to the other extreme. This war, Because of the superfluous actions of Yan Wangxi and others, the loss was not only the loss of two thousand Yan army light cavalry, but also a heavy blow to the hearts of the soldiers and people of Jicheng.

In late August of the 16th year of the Qin Dynasty, the Qin army officially launched an attack on Jicheng, the capital of Yan State. There were not too many routines, only strict and upright rules, but this was the biggest routine for the soldiers and civilians of Jicheng, because that It comes from the crushing force.

When the Qin army continued to attack Jicheng, Yan Dan, who was stationed in Yanshan, continuously received intelligence from Jicheng. Some came from the military reports of the Yan army, and some were obtained through his own intelligence system. However, no matter which way the information was obtained, it told Yan Dan a cruel fact that it would be difficult for Jicheng to survive until the beginning of September.

"If Jicheng is captured, what will it mean to the Yan State and to me?" Yan Dan said in deep thought. Now he still has 20,000 Yan troops in his hands. These 20,000 Yan troops are facing 10,000 Qin troops. Although there are still A war has not broken out, but the pressure he faces is still considerable. What can he do today?

In Yan Dan's silence, a wisp of breeze blew into the tent where he was, and a figure appeared in his sight, a skinny figure with white hair and beard.

"Senior, why are you here?" Looking at the old man in front of him who came uninvited and treated the Yan Army camp as if there was no one else, Yan Dan not only did not feel unhappy at all, but instead put a friendly and respectful smile on his face.

"I came here to kill Yang Ming." The old man walked straight to a desk and knelt down.

"Previously, the prince wanted to use Guo Kai as bait to lure Yang Ming into the trap we set in advance, and then surround him and kill him. He never expected that Yang Ming would not take the bait, and the plan failed. But it is different now." The old man said.

"Now that there are 100,000 Qin troops around Yang Ming, it should be more difficult to ambush Yang Ming, right?" Yan Dan frowned.

If he could kill Yang Ming, Yan Dan would naturally wish for it, but Yang Ming was not that willing to kill him. Not only was his martial arts at the peak, but he was also surrounded by a large army. Even if they had the most terrifying murder weapon in the world, Yan Dan would not do it. I feel like I can succeed.

This old man is from a farmer's family. As for the grief and anger, he is probably the leader of the farmer's family in the previous generation, maybe even earlier. He has been in seclusion in the depths of Daze Mountain all year round. His strength has already reached the level of a great master. Unfortunately, he is too old. To be clear, although the Grand Master can truly be said to be otherworldly, he is still just a human being after all, and human beings will face the threat of time. As he grows older, his body will inevitably decline. Although Time has also made his skills deeper, but overall, his power can no longer grow, but is in decline. As time goes by, this decline will only become more and more serious until he dies. .

The enmity between the peasant family and Yang Ming was so great that Yang Ming almost broke the fifty-year foundation of two generations of the peasant family, from the contemporary Six Sages to the Six Hall Masters, and then to hundreds of core disciples. There is an sworn hatred. Therefore, the great master of the farm family must avenge his revenge before his power truly declines. Otherwise, the energy and spirit of the farm family will be completely cut off, and there will never be a revival. of hope.

To this end, he activated the killing weapon passed down from the peasant family from the Six Divisions of Yan Emperor period. To this end, he found Yan Dan, who had the same sworn hatred with Yang Ming. Therefore, he came up with the plan he had built on Guo Kai before, but What happened was counterproductive, but Yang Ming had no intention of playing a vendetta game with them. Instead, he led 100,000 Qin troops to the Yan Kingdom, causing their plan to fail just after it had begun.

Facing Yang Ming, who had hundreds of thousands of Qin troops on his side, Yan Dan didn't have the courage to take action at all. If those two weapons could really fight against one hundred thousand Qin troops, then the strongest country in the world would not be Qin, but maybe The farmhouse is the Mohist family.

"So we have to wait until Yang Ming leads his army to attack Jicheng and the Yan Palace, and then suddenly take action to isolate Yang Ming from the army, even if it can only be isolated for a quarter of an hour." The old man is also the leader of the farm family. Grandmaster said.

"It's not impossible to just isolate him for a quarter of an hour, but can he really ambush Yang Ming for a quarter of an hour? And how can we be sure that Yang Ming will enter the palace first?" Yan Dan questioned.

It is not that simple to ambush Yang Ming. In this process, Yan Dan not only needs to plan, but also personally joins the battle. If it cannot be foolproof, Yan Dan will never end it personally. A gentleman will not stand in danger. Yan Dan probably understands the truth behind the wall better than anyone else.

Yan Dan never thought about sacrificing his life for the country. As long as he was alive, the Yan country would have hope. Otherwise, who could the Yan country count on? His father who was addicted to pleasure was still his uncle Wang who had lost his human form.

"The battle between the Grand Masters can last for ten days and nights, and it can be difficult to determine the outcome, or it can decide life and death in the blink of an eye." The Grand Master said.

The response was Yan Dan's silence.
