Daqin: Prince Peerless, guarding Hangu for ten years!

Chapter 15 Shocking news!

Xin Liangcheng, county government office.

Yingjun was wearing armor and was sitting on a bearskin mattress, with eighteen Yanyun cavalry standing on his left and right sides holding swords.

Li Cunxiao put on his helmet and strode into the lobby. He immediately knelt down on one knee and prostrated:

"Greetings to my lord! The last general, Li Cunxiao, has come to pay his orders!"

"Cunxiao, please get up." Yingjun held up a hand with his right hand, and then asked: "What was the result of this battle?"

Li Cunxiao immediately replied with a look of shame on his face: "In this battle, more than 600 Wei soldiers were killed, and more than [-] ordinary Wei soldiers were killed. However, [-] of the leopard cavalry under the lord's command were lost in this battle, and no Wei Xinling Lord was left. Wei Wuji, please forgive me, my lord!"

"Two thousand to fifty thousand, more than 2 beheaded, what crime is there to maintain filial piety?" Yingjun waved his hand with a smile, paused, and then said:

"A true man fought for the country, and died in a well-deserved death. Wei Wuji was a famous general in the Wei Kingdom. His decisiveness is rare in the world. Even if I were here, I might not be able to keep him."

As soon as these words came out, Li Cunxiao's eyes showed a look of gratitude. In his heart, no matter how many casualties the Wei soldiers suffered, they could not make up for the casualties of the Leopard Cavalry.

"This battle is due to the impulsiveness of the general. If we confront Wei Wuji and wait for the lord to follow up, we will definitely destroy the Wei army in one battle."

Ying Jun shook his head and said: "Xinliang is not far from Handan. Zhao cavalry may appear at any time. We need to be decisive in the battle."

He knew that Li Cunxiao didn't understand these principles.

It was because Li Cunxiao knew that the number of tiger and leopard cavalry under his command was only [-], and losing [-] in one battle could be regarded as a serious injury.

Although Yingjun felt sorry for the more than 600 leopard riders, there were no undead in a battle.

Three armies are easy to get, but one general is hard to find.

What's more, it's an unparalleled general like Li Cunxiao.

Immediately, Yingjun took the initiative to open up the topic and asked: "How is the situation in Handan?"

He knew that Li Cunxiao must have sent someone to inquire about it.

Li Cunxiao immediately replied with a serious look on his face: "The cavalry of Zhao State were everywhere, and the spies did not approach the Handan battlefield rashly, but they refused to report back, but there was no news of a battle in the direction of Handan."

"What?" Yingjun was shocked when he heard this, and immediately frowned and asked: "There is no movement!? Impossible."

Even if the Wei army did not arrive, Handan would still have gathered at least 20 troops from Chu and Zhao.

Plus Qin's 25-strong army.

This is 45 troops.

With 45 troops gathered together, how could there be no movement at all?

This is a war to destroy the country, and it is impossible to delay it.

Ying Jun frowned, pointed his fingers on his knees, looked at everyone for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "There must have been something unexpected on the Handan battlefield."

What happened to Wang Lu's army?

Did you withdraw?
Still lost?

Everyone has no answer.

However, Li Cunxiao immediately said: "The general thinks so too. If there is a change in Handan, my lord, our army must be ready."

Hearing this, Yingjun nodded, Xinliang was not a place to stay for a long time.

He has defeated the Wei army. When the news comes out, the Chu army and Zhao army must take action.

If the Chu army and the Zhao army come together, even if he gathers the Hangu and Xinliang armies, it is difficult to say whether he will win or lose.

This is always Zhao State.

Even if you lead an army to break through, your foundation will definitely be damaged.

Bei Weijun and Hubaoqi are the foundation he has accumulated over the past ten years since he signed.

He is absolutely loyal to his roots.

Without such a foundation, how could he fight for the throne and rule the world in the future?

"My status is still not enough. If I had enough status, no disturbance would be able to avoid me."

"After this battle, I will become the general of Qin."

Although the general is second only to the general, one step away is a world of difference.

No matter how powerful a general is, he is still a general who obeys orders.

But the general is a proper marshal and can give orders to the three armies.

Qin State has many generals at the moment, but there are only two generals, Bai Qi and Wang Lu.

But this is not the time to think about this.

"Huh!" Ying Jun took a deep breath, then raised his hand and ordered: "Yan Yi, send additional scouts to explore the direction of Handan. Please inform me of any troubles as soon as possible."

"Promise!" Yan Yi clasped his fists and made a promise, then strode out of the lobby.

Seeing this, Yingjun temporarily put aside his worries, turned to Yan Er and ordered: "Send Xinliang's victory report to Xianyang day and night, and ask about the latest situation of King Lu of Handan."

"No!" Yan Er immediately agreed and ran out of the lobby.

Yingjun looked at the remaining people and said in a deep voice:
"Seize the time to repair Xinliang City, open up all the food and grass, let the soldiers eat and drink, restore morale, and build up strength." "Repair weapons and armor, check the number of bows and arrows, speed up the integration of the Xinliang army, and eliminate the old and weak to enter Baggage camp."

"Although the situation is unclear at the moment, we need to remain unchanged for the time being to cope with the changes. However, once the news from Handan changes, the army must move out as soon as possible."

When all the generals heard this, their hearts trembled, and they all clasped their fists: "Promise!"

On the same day, there were fast horses galloping out of Xinliang City, heading east to Xianyang day and night...

……

As the sun sets, the Wei army's camp remains.

A series of chaotic sounds of horse hooves came from the north, breaking the dead silence of the camp again, startling a few jackals, and then they howled and fled in a hurry with their tails between their legs.

A Zhao army cavalry reined in its horse outside the broken wall. The horse neighed restlessly. The cavalrymen were deeply horrified by the bloody scene in front of them.

"hiss!!!"

“There’s a big war happening here!!!”

"It's the Wei army!!!"

The cavalry formation was breathing heavily, and various screams were heard from time to time, and all the cavalrymen's faces turned pale.

They originally patrolled Zhangshui and were responsible for cutting off the communication between the Qin army in Handan and the Qin army in Xinliang.

Just yesterday.

They all passed by here, and there was nothing here except a piece of grass, not even horse hoof prints or footprints.

But, it's just one day and one night.

At this moment, not only was there a military camp, but it was also a mess, like hell.

Cold corpses lay scattered on the ground.

But the most important thing is that all the corpses have no heads, and the air is filled with a strong smell of blood, which makes people want to vomit.

As he walked, the swollen soil under his feet made Zhao Jun's legs weak.

The war horse even hesitated to move forward, swung its long neck and snorted continuously.

A Qu Hou looked at the scene in front of him and said in disbelief: "Colonel...c-could this be done by the Qin army?"

In front, the captain with a resolute face returned in a deep voice: "In addition to the Qin army who beheaded to record their merits, who else could be there?"

With a bang, Qu Hou and the people around him all swallowed their saliva, with fear in their eyes.

Captain Zhao Shitou ignored him this time. He took a deep breath to suppress the panic in his heart, got off his horse and carefully looked at the horse's hoof prints on the ground.

"The Wei army's camp was destroyed by the Qin army's cavalry, and the number could not exceed three thousand." Zhao Shitou suddenly shrank his eyes and said with a numb scalp: "And the Qin army also took away all the wounded, killed all the prisoners, and cleaned The battlefield!!!"

hiss! !

hiss! !

Suddenly there was another gasp of air around them, and everyone's scalp was numb.

Frightened, horrified, and even more unbelievable.

Qu Hou, who was standing next to him, even lost his voice and shouted: "Did the Qin army wipe out the entire Wei army in one fell swoop!!!"

Zhao Shitou's heart trembled when he heard this. This was also the result of his guess.

But how can anyone believe such a ridiculous result?

Zhao Shitou murmured nervously: "Well, let me think about it, let me think about it..."

The surrounding Zhao army officers and soldiers were even more uproar.

"Two thousand cavalry defeated [-] Wei troops?"

"Are the Qin army's cavalry all heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals?"

"We must inform Handan and General Li Mu of the news immediately."

"Will the Qin army leave and come back? Isn't our army in danger?"

Suddenly, the surrounding Zhao Jun generals were startled and turned their heads to look in all directions, with goosebumps all over their bodies.

Even the Wei army in formation could not stop them, and there were not enough of them to be killed by the Qin army.

Zhao Shitou was also shocked, but the situation had not been investigated clearly at this moment. If the Qin army was really so powerful, they would not be able to leave immediately.

Even if it is dangerous, it must be investigated clearly at this moment.

Where did the Qin army come from?

Was the Wei army completely wiped out?

Where did the Qin army go now?
Immediately, Zhao Shitou stood up suddenly and shouted: "Everyone spread out and collect all the information carefully. If you find anything, report it to me immediately."

"As you command, Captain."

All Zhao Jun generals agreed, and immediately led their men, got on their horses and roared away...
