Daqin: Prince Peerless, guarding Hangu for ten years!

Chapter 54 Win Jun’s life and be no weaker than anyone else!

The stars in the night sky were dim and overcast clouds covered the outline of the mountains.

In the dark night, hundreds of thousands of troops stretched on the road, winding along the road to Fencheng three days after Fenshui left.

"Drive—drive—"

The Leopard Cavalry knights galloped back and forth to explore the surrounding environment to ensure the safety of the army's night march. They entered the boundaries of Fencheng without any danger, and finally arrived at Fencheng to station outside the city before midnight.

Yingjun's sense of belonging to Fencheng is not very strong.

For ten years, he had been guarding Hangu Pass, and he was somewhat vague about the entire Qin State, let alone Fen City, which was located east of the river.

We have no idea how big Fencheng is, how many streets there are, how many permanent residents there are, or how many young and strong laborers can be recruited during wartime.

As a soldier, it is understandable that he can't say that, but as the actual controller of the army at this moment, if he cannot even understand the situation of this Fencheng city, it is indeed a bit unfair in a sense. responsibility.

After all, if no other orders were issued, he and his army would be destined to be unable to leave Fencheng for a long time.

Especially when Wang Hao was seriously injured and in a coma, a general like him was needed to stabilize the morale and morale of the army.

However, Yingjun never thought about staying in Fencheng for a long time. He also wanted to counterattack Handan.

Yingjun never gave up on such an idea.

"I have already changed the history of the Battle of Handan, why can't I take a step closer and capture Handan City directly, completely accelerating the process of Qin's unification of the world."

With this idea, Yingjun had no free time during the retreat. Apart from daily check-ins, all his thoughts were focused on the army.

All affairs of the entire army, no matter how small or small, must be personally handled once and for all. They will eat and live with the soldiers, without exception.

This army belonging to Wang Lu, although after the Chu, Zhao and Wei armies retreated and Wang Lu was seriously injured and fell into coma, it was nominally under his command as a general.

However, after all, he is not Wang He. He has not led them to fight for a long time, and he has not completely gathered the morale of the entire army in a short period of time. The strangeness and unfamiliarity between the general and the soldiers need to be polished off, so that he can command them like an arm.

The emotions of the generals and soldiers need to be appeased. What is the subordinate relationship between all the generals in the army? What are the names of the generals at each level? Which generals have conflicts or relationships with each other? Are they countrymen or familiar with each other? A series of things need to be done. Find out...wait until these matters are dealt with.

Only then can this army be considered to belong to him and will act according to his will.

Hundreds of thousands of troops did not enter the city, and the Qin soldiers at the top of Fen City would not open the city gate in the dark night. Fortunately, Wang Ling, who had retreated first, had already arranged for people to build a huge military camp.

……

"Crackling."

The flames flickered and sparks flew.

Burning bonfires were dotted in the military camp, and the entire military camp was depressing and quiet.

The soldiers gathered around the campfire to keep warm, leaning on each other, smelling the steaming aroma of the iron pot, mixed with the smell of horse meat.

The psychological comfort and peace, even though there was a lack of salt and ingredients, made all the soldiers who drank the soup smile after a long absence.

Ying Jun took Li Cunxiao, Dian Wei, Meng Wu, Wang Jian and other generals to inspect the camp. All the soldiers along the way avoided their legs and saluted. Occasionally, they scooped up the broth in the pot and took a sip before continuing on with satisfaction.

Even though he didn't say any words, just this gesture could warm the hearts of many soldiers.

They are all fighting on the battlefield, and the soldiers value actual actions more than rhetoric.Ying Jun pressed Chi Xiao on his waist, and the cloak behind him fluttered with his steps. He didn't care about Meng Wu and Wang Jian behind him, and said straightforwardly:
"The specific situation of the army is much better than I imagined. The soldiers are not as completely devastated as I imagined. The number of disabled and killed soldiers is lower than I expected. Within three days, I looked at the troops of each school. , I made a rough estimate, not counting the 2 soldiers who covered the wounded soldiers and returned to Fencheng in advance, there are at least 15 soldiers who can go to war at any time..."

While he was talking, a pair of soldiers wearing armor and swords came patrolling with sonorous steps. They saluted in this direction. Yingjun raised his hand to greet them. He put his hands behind his back and looked at the general behind him without looking back. They continued:
"...The soldiers refused to fight not because they were afraid of death, nor because they were unwilling to sacrifice their lives for the country. The mere Handan City could not stop the soldiers from wanting to die. Now the Qin people are not afraid of public war! It's just that all the soldiers feel guilty. I feel guilty about my family. During the three years of fighting, not only did they not earn glory for their family, but they actually dragged down the whole family because of the war."

In the flickering firelight, Yingjun's face was uncertain.

Meng Wu, Wang Jian and other generals of the Qin army looked at each other, as if they didn't quite understand Ying Jun's intention. Dian Wei, who was standing next to him, rubbed his beard and said in a low voice: "As long as the lord gives the order, Dian Wei can I must follow my lord into Handan City!"

"Same goes for Cunxiao!" Li Cunxiao clasped his fists firmly, his eyes glowing in the night.

A group of Qin army generals looked at the two of them blankly. They seemed to understand, but they didn't seem to understand, but they still raised their hands and said in unison: "I will wait for the general's orders!"

While Meng Wu and Wang Jian were talking, a light flashed in their eyes, but they didn't say anything.

So what if Yingjun wants to attack Handan?

The soldiers were unwilling to fight.

Even if the king forces the army to counterattack Handan, it will not work.

Yingjun smiled, and was also concerned about the truth and falsehood of these people's words. He turned around and looked at the people behind him, waving his hands to indicate that they were exempt from the courtesy.

Everyone fell silent, and Ying Jun continued: "The specifics are decided by the king and the prime minister. I just told you about this in advance so that you can be prepared."

After saying this, Yingjun paused and then said:

"The army will not enter the city tomorrow. All soldiers are still stationed in the military camp. No one is allowed to leave the camp without the general's orders. Although the soldiers are away from the battlefield, they still cannot be lax and careless. I don't want fights in the army. Things that ruin morale. If you let me know, I will kill you generals, do you understand?"

The generals' hearts trembled, and they all raised their hands and shouted: "No!"

The sound was quite abrupt in the silent military camp, causing the surrounding patrol soldiers to look over with vigilance. Yingjun waved them to put down their arms and said in a deep voice:
"I always speak my words and do what I do. You will know it clearly in the future. It is best to remember it. Whether you are overbearing or tyrannical, in this general, any mistakes will be paid for."

Ying Jun's eyes were stern, and all the generals were excited, and they connected the sinking Ying Jun in front of them with the God of Death on the battlefield that day. In an instant, everyone lowered their heads in awe.

Seeing this, Yingjun waved them all to disperse, and with Li Cunxiao and Dian Wei, he was about to return to the Chinese army's tent, but he accidentally remembered something:
"Tell the doctors in the army that the cloths used to bandage the wounds of wounded soldiers who return to the military camp after the war must be clean, and must be boiled in boiling water before bandaging them. There is no room for negotiation on this matter."

The generals looked at each other in confusion, not understanding why Ying Jun suddenly stipulated this, but they agreed in unison, and then they all clasped their fists and left.

When Ying Jun saw this, his eyes were dark, and after a moment he couldn't help but sigh: "If I were Lord Wu An at this moment, with just one order, the army could immediately counterattack Handan, and there would be no need for such trouble."

Li Cunxiao answered: "But there is only one Lord Wu'an in this world, and my lord cannot become Bai Qi."

"You're right, Bai Qi is unparalleled." Ying Jun nodded and looked up at the sky as he spoke. The clouds cleared and the mist dispersed, revealing the cold lone moon in the sky.

The silver moonlight spread down, and Yingjun's tall body stood tall at this moment. He suddenly smiled, his cloak fluttered, turned around and strode towards the commander's tent, his arrogant voice resounding in the wind.

"I have won a lifetime and am no weaker than anyone else!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the system's mechanical prompts suddenly sounded in Yingjun's ears.

[Ding, the host led the main force of the Qin army to successfully retreat from Fencheng, and has done great service to the country. The host will be rewarded with a special skill: the Eye of Insight! 】
