Chapter 312 What did you say?

Lincheng front line.

Meng Tian's expressionless face stared at the road that kept detouring north.

He wanted to get rid of the Qin army and support the cavalry in the east.

Beside him, Bai Zhong was very nervous.

He looked behind him from time to time.

That represents the retreating army of 150,000 Yue County.

has successfully reached the north of Xianyang from behind them.

The flag that merged with the hundreds of thousands of reinforcements brought by Meng Tian.

It has been rising for a long time.

now.

Yue County is very empty, with less than 50,000 troops.

Even just in case, except for the scouts left behind.

They have all retreated to the central part of Yue County.

If King Yougu Li leads an army to attack, they will continue to retreat.

Even giving up Yue County entirely.

But if it gets to that point.

Meng Tian and other armies not only have to guard against the north.

Even be careful on the left side.

It will be more difficult.

But this is the best way Meng Tian can think of to reverse the situation.

As long as this battle is won.

The old Zhao Great Wall returned to Da Qin.

Then the Yinshan Mountain that is close to it will be accessible to the Qin army at will.

Circumvent the front exit point behind the Hu garrison.

At that time, the Hu people would not dare to stay near Henan.

If we don't take back Yinshan, we will have to retreat.

Even if they are cavalry, no matter how fast they are.

But they also need to rest and stay stationed.

It is impossible to allow enemy troops to appear behind you at any time.

This is a trade-off that no one thought of.

It was a strategy that even Mao Dun couldn't guard against.

But the risk is to be seen through by Mao Dun in advance.

Not only is the Great Wall difficult to capture, but even Yue County may be lost in vain.

It can be said that Meng Tian is under tremendous pressure.

But he remained expressionless.

Just keep giving orders.

"The square formation on the right side stops moving forward."

"Start the retreat!"

But Bai Zhong beside him was a little uneasy.

"Retreat now?"

"Can you wait a little longer?"

"The situation in the East is still unclear."

"After the barbarians retreat, they can support them unscrupulously!"

Meng Tian said softly.

"The phalanx is stretched too far. If it doesn't shrink, chaos will begin!"

"With this kind of time, success is achieved. If we don't have the Great Wall, we will never be able to win it."

The words just fell.

Bai Zhong saw that the square formation at the front was somewhat loose and deformed.

The distance from the square array behind him becomes larger.

Even if you haven’t come into contact with the Hu people yet.

They were all a little confused.

If this continues, it will soon become a loophole and be surrounded by barbarians.

Fortunately, the general who led the charge was very cautious and immediately stopped advancing after observing this scene.

Start to reorganize your formation on the spot.

Bai Zhong breathed a sigh of relief.

Some admire Meng Tian in front of him.

Sure enough, it makes sense for His Majesty to appoint him as the commander-in-chief.

My own judgment is indeed not as refined as Meng Tian's.

Next, they only need to wait for news from the east side.

If it succeeds, Henan will become more secure.

The next focus and place of battle between the two sides is.

It will also become the land of the Western Region and Yue County.

If it fails, Great Qin will completely lose Henan, Yue County, and may even be implicated in Jiuyuan County and Yunzhong, shrinking its defense line.

If the east side is defeated again, Great Qin will lose almost one-fifth of its territory.

Just when Qin generals were worried.

Mao Dun from the north already looked solemn.

He didn't expect that.

No matter how cautious he was, he still underestimated the opponent's general in the end.

When the smoke of the wolf is burning in the far west.

Mao Dun actually already knew this.

The Great Wall may no longer be able to be defended.

I am afraid that Yinshan cannot be saved.

Mao Dun looked a little ugly.

But that didn't make him think he was at a disadvantage.

Even if the other party takes advantage of it.

It was just taking a huge risk to slightly equalize the disadvantage.

Regardless of whether the left part of the east goes south.

Or the Western Region that is about to fall completely.

These are the Achilles heel that Da Qin cannot bear.

Modu comforted himself in his heart.

Then he asked the scout to send a message to General Qin.

"You are so brave to do such a thrilling act!"

"I'll let you take advantage this time."

"But I just don't know if you will have the guts to do this again after you receive other news!"

Modun sneered.

"Wait for the east to move south and the news of the fall of the Western Region to appear."

"I don't believe Meng Tian dares to take such a risk!"

After the words fell, Mao Dun no longer hesitated.

He shouted without any pretense.

"We lost the opportunity in this battle!"

"But don't worry about it."

"When King Zuo Guli is ready, we will attack from the west."

"When Yue County is captured, the vast land of Henan will be completely opened to us."

"No more obstacles."

"The people of Qin can only go back and defend the Great Wall."

"The old Zhao Great Wall that has been conquered now should not be abandoned in vain!"

"They dare to abandon Yue County to seize it with all their strength."

"So what if we give them a section of the city wall temporarily!"

"Chang Sheng Tian is watching with his own eyes."

"The glory will be ours in the end!"

The generals below immediately started shouting.

The soldiers of various tribes also began to gradually retreat northward.

Seeing this scene, Meng Tian breathed a sigh of relief.

He knew it was done.

at the same time.

There are also scouts coming from the east.

Shouting with joy.

"The Great Wall is captured!"

"Old Zhao Great Wall has been captured!"

"The 300,000-strong army was so devastating that the Hu people couldn't resist it and were forced to retreat into the Yin Mountains."

Such news made all the soldiers feel refreshed.

Bai Zhong also laughed out loud.

Such a risky move.

It was frightening at first, but the result was also exciting.

This feeling is addictive.

But at this moment.

Maodun's words were conveyed by a scout who risked his life.

The soldiers didn't care.

He also made fun of Mo Dun, saying he was a stubborn duck who refused to admit defeat.

Among the excited generals, only Meng Tian frowned again.

The generals didn't know.

He knew that the real crisis was still in the east, in the Western Region.

Could it be that the news that Mao Dun mentioned was these two.

Meng Tian is actually not too worried about the Western Region, he has a plan in mind to deal with it.

The only thing I'm worried about is the east.

Can the eldest son with only 10,000 soldiers really be able to repel Jizi North Korea and Qiu Lin's army?

What's more, there are hundreds of thousands of troops on the left side of the Xiongnu who have never appeared.

Whether they are guarding Dragon City or waiting for the opportunity, no one knows!

At this moment, an urgent secret letter arrived from behind.

Moreover, the letter holder looked indifferent, as if he was an imperial edict and would not let anyone take over.

Only when Shan Shan saw Meng Tian did he hand it over in person.

Meng Tian felt a chill in his heart when he saw this scene.

I had some bad premonitions.

Open the letter.

The first line of large characters.

"Jizi North Korea was destroyed, and the Qiulin family was besieged!"

Meng Tian suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

Unexpectedly, it was a good news.

But why should we be so cautious about the good news?

The messenger in front of him solemnly motioned for Meng Tian to continue reading.

"Prince, go out and look for traces of the left side."

"It was ambushed by him and surrounded by a hundred thousand troops on the left."

"I don't know what the consequences will be."

"Modun Danruo uses this as a threat."

"Of course I agree!"

Look at the bright red characters at the back.

Meng Tian felt a chill all over his body.

Sure enough, His Royal Highness's journey has been so smooth.

After fighting a hundred battles without danger, he developed the habit of making such aggressive advances.

But Meng Tian didn't complain.

After all, no matter who it is, even if he is replaced by the prince.

It can't be any better.

Traveling southward to the territory of thousands of miles, the Western Qiang Qinghai, Jizi North Korea, and the Qiulin clan.

These feats add up.

Even the First Emperor would be proud and think he was invincible!

Meng Tian sighed.

Such news cannot be communicated to the army.

He also knew why Modu was so confident.

I'm afraid he has the confidence of His Highness the Crown Prince.

Meng Tian turned around and looked north.

He frowned and thought about how to exchange His Highness the Crown Prince from the hands of the barbarians at the minimum cost. Henan is definitely out of reach.

I'm afraid I have to give up Yue County.

As for Jiu, it was His Highness who originally defeated him.

If you lose it, you lose it.

Meng Tian's only worry was that Yunzhong County was Da Qin's own territory.

I'm afraid that Mao Dun will take the opportunity to take it away.

In this way, Yanmen further east becomes an isolated island.

It may be invaded by the Huns at any time and is difficult to defend.

When Meng Tian is worried.

That north.

The news that the Great Wall was broken finally reached Modu's ears.

The surrounding soldiers were silent.

Morale is slightly low.

But Mao Dun didn't care at all.

His face was high-spirited, like the green grass in spring.

Not discouraged at all.

"Send an order to King Yougu Li."

"Speed ​​up and gather the Western Region."

"The tribes began to march westward."

"Yue County is empty at the moment. I'm afraid there are less than 50,000 defenders."

"Whoever rushes faster will own the territory!"

The words fell.

The generals' eyes widened instantly.

Even King Youxian was slightly excited.

Yue County is quite a big place.

Whoever gets it will at least recreate one of the four nobles.

There might even be a fourth king! (The Prince's Zuoxian King has always been vacant.)

Modun looked at the extremely excited generals.

Smile slightly.

This defeat is indeed not in his eyes.

What's more, not all the 100,000-strong army was destroyed.

The Qin people just relied on their large numbers and raided several sections of the Great Wall.

The barbarian soldiers could not take them back, so they retreated.

The total number of casualties was less than 20,000.

It won't hurt the flesh.

Modu turned around and suddenly asked.

"Isn't it time for news from the left?"

"I haven't heard anything for several days."

The wise king beside him also nodded.

"really."

"According to the time, it doesn't matter whether the Jizi Dynasty can capture Landong."

"It's time for a letter now!"

The two of them had just finished speaking.

In the north, a man appeared in a state of utter disarray.

The Qiulin people who lost their horses and walked with only one pair of feet.

In order to hurry up, he drove his horses desperately in the desert.

But he didn't expect to tire him to death.

You can only come on foot.

This was delayed for several days.

Fortunately, his letter was not meant to save lives.

If he was reported to King Zuo Guli, he would probably be tempted to commit suicide.

When he approaches, alert surrounding guards.

"Report!"

"Letter from Qiulin."

Modu's eyes lit up.

The defeat just now will still affect the morale of the army no matter what.

The Eastern War Report comes at the right time.

It can be used to inspire the army.

The soldier originally wanted to give the letter to King Youxian and present it to Maodun.

Modu said directly.

"Read!"

"Let the soldiers hear what kind of advantage our Hu people, the left, have gained on the east side of the Qin Dynasty!"

The words fell.

The soldiers looked ugly.

Maodun was stunned.

Is it possible that Landong County really failed to be captured?

But the soldiers beside him were all waiting eagerly.

Maodun was immediately angry.

"What are you looking at? I want you to read it!"

"So what if I didn't win it."

"I, a Hu man, never hide anything I do!"

After the words fell, the soldier finally gritted his teeth.

Read it out loud.

"The Qiulin clan deserves Shan Yu's trust."

"We were ambushed by Qin's silver-armored cavalry and lost 30,000 troops."

"Failed to capture Landong."

"Jizi North Korea was completely destroyed by the troops led by the eldest son of the Qin Dynasty."

"Today, the armies of Yuyang, Youbeiping, and Lianxi counties are counterattacking."

"The city of Yuduole may be besieged."

"The Qiulin family is incompetent and can only retreat to defend the city temporarily."

"I am now asking for help from King Zuo. I am asking for help from the royal court."

"Please also support tens of thousands of cavalry to resolve the crisis in Qiulin!"

The general just finished speaking.

Mao Dun couldn't bear the violence any longer.

"Don't ask for help from King Zuogu Li."

"What are you doing here?"

Then he asked again.

"How many people are there in Shining Armor?"

The soldier swallowed.

"Five to five thousand people."

Suddenly, everyone couldn't help but sigh.

Just because of five thousand people, the entire eastern layout was destroyed.

Mao Dun even lost his composure.

"waste!"

"Really incompetent!"

"You shouldn't trust this Qiu Lin who has so little success!"

"What is King Zuo Guli doing?"

"Is he blind?"

"Watching the Qiulin family being surrounded?"

The furious Maodun frightened the scout who sent the message.

It also made the surrounding generals fall silent again.

Maodun paused for a moment, noticing that his morale had been lost again due to his loss of composure.

More annoyed.

But he still had to take a breath.

It took a long time to calm down.

"No problem!"

"King Zuogu Li will definitely go to support us."

King Youxian also spoke out.

"Why did the Qiulin family send the letter here if they didn't ask King Zuo Guli for help?"

"What does he want to do? It's so disturbing to the morale of the army. I don't know what peace of mind he has!"

Modun raised his hand.

King Youxian did not let him continue.

"These are not important. Wait until we take over Yue County and Henan."

"Go back to Dragon City and deal with it together."

"Now, the top priority is to move west immediately."

"Besides, with King Zuogu Li here, there will be no waves in the east."

King Youxian also immediately supported him.

"That's right, the only silver-armored cavalry we are afraid of, I didn't expect that Great Qin would use them in the east."

"Although it does relieve Landong's crisis."

"But let us no longer have any scruples!"

Mao Dun also nodded, his eyes narrowed dangerously.

"No wonder Qin Shihuang dared to reinforce his army with 200,000 troops."

"It turned out to be this move."

"But it doesn't matter, it still can't change the overall situation!"

Modun puffed out his chest again.

I believe that the entire situation is still under his control.

Although the soldiers looked at each other.

But we are still extremely optimistic about the current situation.

He began to urge his subordinates again.

To speed up the westward advance, it is best to be the first to repel Qin's 50,000-strong army.

By occupying Yue County, they can also achieve a higher status.

The army began to turn slowly.

Even the 80,000 infantrymen who retreated from Yinshan began to head west.

Moton sighed.

Just as he was about to regain his composure, he encouraged everyone again.

In the distance, several scouts appeared again.

However, this time he came from the hinterland of the Northern Royal Court.

this time.

In the end, Mao Dun didn't dare to let him read it out.

But the news came from the royal court.

I'm afraid it's no big deal.

It was probably a report from King Zuogu Li who went south to deal with the Qin people.

This time, the scolded soldier learned wisely.

Without sending a message, he directly asked the officers and men of Dragon City to come forward.

But he saw the man running forward anxiously.

Maodun didn't wait to speak first.

Then he shouted.

"Chanyu!"

"Something bad is going to happen!"

"The Qin people's heavy cavalry in silver armor are too vicious."

"The army on the left was defeated one after another."

"Now they are besieged in Guyan Mountain by Great Qin's silver-armored cavalry!"

Mao Dun's unconcerned expression suddenly froze.

This time, even King Youxian and the twenty-four leaders around him thought that their ears had heard wrongly.

Modun narrowed his eyes and asked.

"What did you say?"

"It's the army from the left, surrounding the silver armor, right?"
