Qin Gong

Chapter 223 There must be a chance to meet Li Mu!
Bai Yan rode a war horse on a mound behind the army, looking at the mountains in the distance, Zhao Guo's army covered the entire plain.

Beside Bai Yan, Wang Ben gave orders to defend one by one.

In terms of the army's tenacity, Wang Ben has long been familiar with his father Wang Jian.

Therefore, facing the army led by Zhao Guo Li Mu, Wang Ben can still issue orders one by one in an orderly manner.

At this time, Bai Yan didn't care about the command right, and let Wang Ben take command.

On the opposite side are Li Mu and Zhao Bianqi, who are well-known all over the world. When life and death are at stake, Bai Yan naturally doesn't care about other things at this time.

What's more, Bai Yan knows clearly.

For a general, the most important thing to do is to know how to use people, and the most taboo thing is to be brave.

Hirano.

Bai Yan looked at Zhao Guo's army in the distance, and felt a little nervous, because he chose this line of defense. If this line of defense fails and the attack on Zhao fails, he will inevitably be convicted.

And Bai Yan thought of what Bai Yu had said to him back then.

He is not Li Xin, his name is Bai Yan, if he is defeated on the battlefield of Zhao State, the generals of Zhao State will definitely not let him go.

It can be said that Bai Yan now truly understands the pressure of leading troops in battle.

"Zhao Jun doesn't seem to plan to attack now!"

Wang Ben was riding a war horse, looking nervously at the Zhao army in the distance, and said.

Wang Ben once followed his father and confronted Li Mu, so Wang Ben knew very well how terrifying Li Mu's strategy of mobilizing troops was.

Fortunately, the main general is Bai Yan, who trusts him and entrusts him with full command of the army.

Bai Yan nodded when he heard Wang Ben's words.

"It should be because I don't know if the chief general of our army is General Wang Jian, so I have some scruples."

Bai Yan guessed.

Because Qin's army and Zhao's army arrived almost at the same time yesterday, he was sure that Li Mu would not attack at night. However, from today onwards, Bai Yan was no longer as sure as he was last night in judging Li Mu's plan.

"General, Zhao Jun doesn't seem to have a hundred thousand people!"

Chai was riding a war horse, dressed in Qin armor, looking at Zhao's army in the distance.

Zhao Guo's army does not seem to have one hundred thousand people, but about fifty thousand, at least half of the number reported by the soldiers yesterday.

Listening to Chai's words, Bai Yan frowned slightly.

Naturally, Bai Yan also saw that the number of Zhao Jun who came here was not one hundred thousand, but before the spies came back, no one knew which direction Li Mu sent the tens of thousands of Zhao Jun to go.

No.

Maybe there is a chance!
Bai Yan looked at Zhao Guo's army in the distance with thoughtful eyes, but this opportunity requires luck.

In terms of commanding troops and planning, in today's world, no one can stand beside Li Mu, even Wang Jian, in Bai Yan's heart, cannot.

Because behind Wang Jian there is a steady stream of Qin State's army and the national power of Qin State, but Li Mu does not even have Zhao State behind him.

When General Huan Jue of the Qin State was still there, Wang Jian, who was a lot of age, was the deputy general. He could see that in the eyes of the King of Qin and a series of important officials of the Qin State, the ability of the General Huan Juan was higher than that of Wang Jian.

It was under such circumstances that Li Mu beheaded Huan Jue, the general of the Qin State.

Moreover, Wang Jian himself has said bluntly many times that he is not sure of defeating Li Mu.

"Where will the remaining tens of thousands of Zhao troops go?"

Wang Ben looked at Zhao Jun, his brows were furrowed, and his eyes were full of worry.

At this moment, a lot of sweat had already appeared in Wang Ben's armor.

The pressure to face Li Mu is too great.

"Zhao Jun wants to meet!"

Wang Ben saw a chariot driving towards the mighty Zhao army on the plain, and then a Zhao pawn on horseback drove towards their Qin army. Wang Ben immediately thought of the reason.

Wang Ben turned his head.

"Whether it's Li Mu or not, the chief general of the Zhao army is impressive."

Wang Ben said to Bai Yan, and then explained how to identify Li Mu: "Li Mu has a disease in his right hand! He can't hold a sword or stretch his arm."

Wang Ben knew that if Zhao Jun asked for a meeting, the leader of the Qin Army had to go, otherwise, once Zhao Jun laughed at Qin Jun, it would disturb the Qin Army's morale, and Qin Zu would feel timid and hesitant.

As the deputy general, it was natural that Bai Yan went to meet him.

"it is good!"

Bai Yan nodded.

"Yan Mao, Ye, you two come with me."

Bai Yan turned his head and said to Yan Mao and Ye.

Among the cavalry generals, Yan Mao is the most ferocious and skilled in martial arts, and Ye is not afraid of death.

And he was not in the army, it was a surprise, Chai wanted to stay and control the iron cavalry.

"promise!"

"promise!!"

Yan Mao and Ye hurriedly bowed their hands.Then they saw Bai Yan riding forward, and the two quickly followed.

Hirano.

In the army of Qin State and the army of Zhao State, the respective flags of the two armies fluttered with the wind, accompanied by the morning sun, countless soldiers in armor stood in place with weapons in hand.

And on the huge plain among them, under the watchful eyes of countless soldiers, the chief generals of the Qin and Zhao armies each led a team of soldiers to meet in the middle.

Goooooooo~!

The hooves, the wheels, when all sounds cease.

The soldiers holding Changge and the black flag with the characters of Qin and the soldiers of the Zhao army on the opposite side looked at each other vigilantly.

Bai Yan looked at the chariot opposite him, and on the chariot, an old general in his fifties slowly got off the chariot.

Bai Yan also got off his horse.

Beside Bai Yan, Yan Mao and Ye also followed Bai Yan and walked towards the opposite side.

With the weak wind blowing from the river, Bai Yan, who was dressed in Qin armor, looked straight at the old general opposite, and also noticed that the old general's right arm was indeed disabled, it seemed to be shrinking.

If it is correct, this Zhao Guo general is Li Mu!

Li Mu!

It was the first time for Bai Yan to see this famous general who has been passed down through the ages, but unlike the later legends, Li Mu was not tall and strong, but just like him, he didn't seem like a general at all.

Li Mu's beard seems to have been shaved not long ago, and the beard that has just grown on the corner of his mouth can tell that Li Mu has only been away from home for a few days.

"I am Qin General Bai Yan! I don't know if the general is Zhao Wu'an Jun Li Mu?"

Bai Yan stepped forward and was the first to salute.

Thinking of Li Mu's deeds, defeating the Xiongnu, destroying the rags, breaking the Donghu, and even defeating the Qin army.

To say I'm not nervous would be a lie.

If it wasn't for the king's order, and if it wasn't for being a general of Qin, Bai Yan would not have rushed to Zhao to face Li Mu.

Because against Li Mu on the battlefield, not to mention winning, Bai Yan was not sure of leaving alive.

"Bai Yan, Gao Nu Bai Yan?"

Hearing Bai Yan's name on Li Mu's vicissitudes of face, he looked thoughtful, and then looked at the young Qin army general in front of him with great interest.

He heard about the battle of Gao Nu.

Dare to fight against the [-] troops of Yueshi and Xiongnu with [-] cavalry, this Bai Yan is indeed the first person he has ever seen after being a famous goalkeeper.

I thought that this young Bai family member should be resting after the first battle of Gaonu, but he did not expect to come to Zhao country.

"I am Li Mu!"

Li Mu answered Bai Yan, and then looked at the mighty and neat Qin army behind the young Qin general in front of him, looking at the countless Qin banners and Changge.

"I didn't expect Qin Wangzheng to appoint you as a lieutenant at such a young age!"

After Li Mu received the news from the spies last night, he looked at the defensive formation and thought it was Qin general Wang Jian, but he didn't expect it to be the young Bai Yan.

In this way, the formation that is very similar to Wang Jian should be made by Qin general Wang Ben, and if Bai Yan came to meet him, then this Bai Yan should be the deputy general of the Qin army on this road.

"Bai Yan is indebted to Wang En!"

Bai Yan heard Li Mu's words and said softly.

This sentence was suspected of being flattering, but Bai Yan still said it.

Hearing Bai Yan's words, Li Mu turned his gaze away from Qin Jun, and looked at the young Qin general in front of him.

"Another army of the Qin State has been trapped in Yingchuan. Your Qin army alone cannot cross the well."

Li Mu bluntly stated his intentions.

Persuade to retire!

Li Mu told Bai Yan directly that with Li Mu around, the Qin army would never be able to cross the well.

"Bai Yan knows what Mr. Wu An is capable of!"

When Bai Yan heard Li Mu's words, he smiled and shook his head: "But Lord Wu An should also know that Bai Yan can't retreat due to drought and natural disasters!"

After speaking, Bai Yan looked at Li Mu.

Bai Yan knew that with Li Mu's ability, what Li Mu said just now was not an exaggeration at all.

But no matter how strong Li Mu is, with Wang Ming on his side, it is absolutely impossible for him to lead the army to retreat right now.

But he didn't say the king's order, but said that because of the disaster, he would not retreat, nor could he retreat.

"Before Gao Nu's incident, I didn't want to meet you on the battlefield. I never thought that I would meet you on the battlefield in the end. Since you don't retreat, then you and I will only meet each other in battle!"

Li Mu looked at the young Bai Yan.

Because Li Mu was stationed at the border all year round, he hated the Huns going south to plunder.

Therefore, regarding Bai Yan's previous behavior and actions in Gaonu, as far as he is concerned, even if the opponent is a Qin general, he still rarely appreciates this young Qin general.

pity.

Finally met on the battlefield.

"Everyone is their own master, please give me some advice from Mr. Wu An!"

Bai Yan looked at Li Mu and bowed his hands in salute.

Li Mu looked at Bai Yan, nodded and saluted, and after saluting with Bai Yan, he turned and left.

After Bai Yan finished his ceremony, he stood there and watched Li Mu's leaving back.

In Bai Yan's heart, he admired Li Mu from the bottom of his heart.

In terms of standpoint, as a general of Zhao, Li Mu devoted his whole life to the country of Zhao, and made countless contributions to the army of Zhao country on the battlefield.

In terms of identity, Li Mu is a native of the Central Plains. With only one person leading the army, the Xiongnu did not dare to go south to herd horses for ten years, and all the people in the Central Plains benefited from him.

Such a person has no black spots.

When later generations talked about Li Mu's extermination of the Xiongnu, they would always say that the Huns were not in their heyday, but no one ever thought that Li Mu also annihilated [-] Xiongnu with the national power of a vassal state.

And it was Li Mu who supported the Zhao country at the time of the sunset of the Zhao country.

It's a pity that no matter how loyal Li Mu is to Zhao, no matter how Li Mu destroys the rags, breaks the Donghu, rejects Han and Wei, and even defeats the Qin army.

The final result is that not only Qin Guo thinks day and night to get rid of Li Mu, but even Zhao Guo, where Li Mu has been effective all his life, in the court of Zhao Guo, Guo Kai and other ministers, want Li Mu to die, and even Zhao Wangqian never He had trusted Li Mu, who was utterly loyal to Zhao Guo, and wanted him to die suddenly so that he could take over the military power.

Thinking of all these things, and looking at Li Mu's disabled right hand, he couldn't even hold a sword or eat.

Right now, even Bai Yan couldn't help but sigh with emotion, the heavens, how can Li Mu be so thin!
It seems that everything is unfair to Li Mu.

Thinking that he was also planning how to get rid of Li Mu, Bai Yan felt a little guilty, a little ashamed of his methods, but with his position, Bai Yan had no choice.

As far as the world is concerned, on the battlefield, no one dares to say that Li Mu can beat Li Mu, and everyone in the world knows this.

And his allegiance is Qin.

It was Qin Wang Yingzheng.

The standpoint is that as long as Zhao Guo can be destroyed, he would rather be a villain and do whatever he can.

Otherwise, if he fights Li Mu head-on, he and the Bai family's iron cavalry under his command will die, and even they will all be killed by Li Mu.

So after this battle, as long as he is still alive, facing Li Mu, he will still choose to divorce without hesitation.

Among the Qin army, Wang Ben was riding a war horse. After waiting for a long time, he finally saw Bai Yan and the soldiers of the Qin army on the plain in the distance, riding their horses and heading back towards the army.

And the general of the Zhao army also returned to the chariot and walked towards the Zhao army.

"How? But Li Mu?"

After Wang Ben waited for Bai Yan to come back, he asked curiously.

Bai Yan nodded to Wang Ben.

"It's Li Mu!"

Bai Yan opened his mouth to answer, and there was some helplessness in his words.

For him, since joining the army, he has experienced many wars, but no matter that time, no matter whether it was in Handi or in Gaonu, he never died like he is now, and his heart is full of anxiety.

This anxiety came from Li Mu.

This famous Zhao country general who has never been defeated in his life.

Now the battle is imminent.

Looking at Li Mu's previous achievements, it can be seen that Li Mu will never fight an unsure battle.

Boom, boom, boom~! ! ! ! !

Suddenly there was the sound of war drums in the distance behind him, Bai Yan turned his head and looked at Zhao Guo's army in the distance.

Zhao Guo's army is already beating drums, which is the sound of horns for war.

Obviously, after knowing that Wang Jian was not leading the army, Li Mu had guessed that the army led by Wang Jian must have not arrived at Yanyu.

"Drumming!"

Wang Ben also hurriedly ordered to the messenger, and immediately asked people to beat the drums to boost morale.

Bai Yan rode his horse back to the mound.

Seeing Wang Ben's tense expression, Bai Yan also looked worriedly at Zhao Guo's army in the distance. Right now, he could only believe that Wang Ben could defend.

Li Mu still has [-] troops missing, which is not a good thing.

Now I can only pray that Wang Ben can defend this place under Li Mu's attack. As long as he defends, he will have a chance to know Li Mu's plan.

Years of drought in Dai, and now there is an earthquake, the people of Dai were killed and injured countless times, the generals and soldiers under Li Mu's command are all from Dai County and Yanmen, there must be a chance.

"coming!"

Wang Ben was shocked when he saw Zhao Jun in two phalanxes starting to attack here under the mountains in the distance.

Bai Yan saw that Zhao Bianqi was behind Zhao Jun's phalanx and attacked together.

"Let the soldiers prepare to protect the right wing and wait for orders at any time."

Bai Yan ordered.

"promise!"

Chai hastily bowed his hands to accept the order, then turned around and instructed his cronies.

"Order the archers to prepare!"

Wang Ben opened his mouth and ordered.

Accompanied by the messengers carrying the command banner to report Wang Ben's order, shortly after, under Bai Yan's gaze, the soldiers with bows and crossbows of the Qin Army, and the soldiers with wooden shields, walked forward another fifty steps.

Rows of soldiers of the Qin army walked forward with bows and crossbows in their hands. After they were brought to their positions, they stood in place, raised the bows and crossbows with arrows, and aimed at the Zhao army phalanx coming from a distance.

"Fire arrows!"

Bai Yan listened to the moderate roar of the generals of the Qin army, and then saw rows of soldiers of the Qin army at the front, all pointing in the direction of the Zhao soldiers, pulling the crossbow.

Accompanied by densely packed arrows shooting towards Zhao's army, even if Zhao's soldiers were prepared and raised their wooden shields, there were still many casualties.

After two or three waves of arrows, many soldiers of the Zhao army fell to the ground.

At this time, Qin Jun's crossbowman also entered the range of Zhao Jun's bow, and almost instantly, countless arrows fell from the sky.

The soldiers with bows and crossbows quickly retreated and squatted down, while the soldiers of the Qin army with shields quickly stood in front of them with shields.

As countless arrows flew down, a number of soldiers of the Qin army fell to the ground one after another, some were bowmen, and some were soldiers holding shields.

Accompanied by several waves of arrows shooting at each other.

Bai Yan and Wang Ben rode war horses and stood on the mound, watching Zhao's army getting closer.

Wang Ben hastily ordered that the phalanx armed with long daggers come forward and prepare for the battle.

Boom boom boom~! !
After Wang Ben's order was issued, the messengers held the command flag and drove towards the phalanx. After a few breaths, they saw a large group of Qin army phalanxes holding long spears, walking forward to replace the bows and crossbows. Hands, stand at the forefront.

After a while.

Accompanied by the soldiers of the Qin and Zhao armies, the moment they met on the plain, countless long daggers intertwined and stabbed at each other.

Whether it was the soldiers of the Qin army or the soldiers of the Zhao state, they all became red-eyed in an instant.

You come and go with Chang Ge, and you can see people dying under Chang Ge almost all the time, falling to the ground and turning into corpses.

At this time, no matter whether it was the Qin army or the Zhao army, some soldiers with Qin swords and sharp blades appeared from their respective phalanxes. Soldiers with long arms.

Accompanied by the impact of Changge, the screams of soldiers, and the sound of sharp blades colliding.

on the battlefield.

More and more soldiers fell in a pool of blood.

Whether it was Li Mu in Zhao's army in the distance, or Wang Ben in Qin's army, they all watched all this.

At this moment, Wang Ben was a little lucky. Fortunately, the terrain here was narrow, and under the mountains on both sides, the curved Zhangshui River made it impossible for Zhao Jun to use it. Otherwise, he couldn't guarantee that he could resist Li Mu alone.

Looking at Bai Yan from the corner of the eye, Wang Ben didn't blame Bai Yan for not being able to help him. At Bai Yan's young age, everything he did before was far beyond his expectations.

Facing Li Mu.

Even if his father is here, Li Mu is not sure that he can win, how could he expect Bai Yan to help him.

Right now, he just wants to stay here.

Looking at Zhao Guo's army in the distance, what disturbs him the most right now is the disappearing tens of thousands of Zhao Guo's army.
