My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?.

Chapter 445 Bai Qi shook his head after seeing this, Your Majesty, please take care of him!

"Work harder! Run another twenty miles and our army will reach Shouchun City!"

"Shangzhu Kingdom has sent a military report, asking Qu Zuoyin's troops to build a position in Shouchun City. As long as we escape to Shouchun, we can survive!"

"As long as we can't run to death, we will run to death! As long as we escape back to Shouchun City..."

During the Battle of Huayang, Bai Qi led his elite infantry to complete a rapid sprint of 800 miles in eight days at a speed of hundreds of miles a day, defeating the Zhao and Wei coalition forces, beheading 150,000 people and killing 20,000 prisoners. His name will go down in history.

But in this battle, the Chu army completed a rapid march of nearly 800 miles in only six days under the pressure of Ying Chengyu!

Even though from time to time some Chu troops would run to death, the remaining Chu troops would continue to run without stopping.

This is not only because the Qin army is pursuing them relentlessly, but also because all the Chu soldiers have a belief in their hearts.

As long as they escape back to Shouchun City, they can survive!

But when they actually arrived at Shouchun City, what greeted them was not a tent set up, hot soup and rice, or friendly troops fighting bravely.

But a battlefield littered with corpses!

Looking at the Qin troops scattered around Shouchun City, looking at the flags floating on the top of Shouchun City, and looking at the friendly troops rushing to break through, all the Chu troops were stunned.

"what on earth is it!"

"Qin Shangzhu Guojian first defrauded the main force of our army by luring the enemy, and then attacked Shouchun City regardless of the cost."

Ying Chengyu's troops in the rear were chasing after him, and Wang Jian's troops were not far away.

Many soldiers came here because of their strength. When they saw the flag of Qin flying on top of Shouchun City, they could no longer hold on and fell to the ground as soon as they closed their eyes.

Xiang Yan's voice was extremely bitter: "Our army was also defeated!"

He even noticed the Chu soldier who died suddenly and fell down.

The two Qin armies combined had at least 300,000 powerful soldiers, but the Chu army only had less than 20,000 remnants and exhausted soldiers.

The vision of most of the soldiers had lost their sensitivity, and only a few generals could still notice the friendly troops galloping towards them.

"Now the Qin army has just captured Shouchun, and has not yet repaired Shouchun City, and the Qin army is exhausted."

Qu Huan felt uneasy in his heart.

Co-author Xiang Yan's troops not only failed to bring them reinforcements, but actually brought them pursuers!

"Your army was defeated no matter what!"

"Our army came to Shouchun City to find reinforcements!"

When Wang Jian stormed Shouchun City, Qu Huan was extremely looking forward to the arrival of Xiang Yan's troops.

"Then can we still survive!"

"As long as you and I join forces to cover up the attack, we will definitely be able to..."

But when Xiang Yan's troops really arrived, Qu Huan discovered that this was not a victorious rendezvous, nor a timely reinforcement, but just two remaining defeated soldiers hugging each other for warmth!

"I don't want to die! Wuwuwu~ I want to go home!"

"Shangzhu Kingdom!" Zuo Yin Quhuan couldn't wait to ride his horse and rush to the front of the army. Holding the tiger talisman high in his hand to break through the obstruction of Xiang Yan's troops, he shouted with tears in his eyes: "Your troops are finally here!"

The anticipation and excitement in Qu Huan's eyes faded.

"This general will have to lead the remaining soldiers to withdraw from Shouchun City."

Qu Huan's voice should have become louder and louder.

But as he spoke, Qu Huan's voice became weaker and weaker, and finally disappeared completely.

Just because he finally noticed Xiang Yan's dusty body.

No one knew whether they were unconscious or dead.

"Our army only has more than 10,000 soldiers and horses left!"

Jingchou cried out in despair: "Our army only has a few thousand soldiers left, and there is not much food, grass and baggage left. Lord Qin Changan's troops are fifty miles behind."

"Shouchun City fell?"

This doesn't look like reinforcements at all!

Looking at Qu Huan, whose robes were stained with blood and shot by two arrows, Xiang Yan's voice was extremely bitter: "Shouchun City has also fallen!"

After swallowing hard, Qu Huan asked carefully: "Shangzhu Kingdom, aren't your troops here to help my troops?"

Qu Huan asked anxiously: "Shangzhu Kingdom, what should our army do?"

No one cares whether they can stand up again.

Qu Huan looked at Xiang Yan with burning eyes: "Fortunately, Shangzhu Kingdom came in time."

Qu Huan's eyes turned to fear.

Qu Huan lowered his head, tightened his grip on the reins, and said with self-blame: "This general is incompetent!"

"The main force of our unit quickly returned for reinforcements and fought fiercely in the city, but in the end we could not resist."

Just five words struck Qu Huan's heart like a heavy hammer.

He noticed the tired, desperate and lack of will to survive looks in the eyes of Xiang Yan's soldiers.

This is not two defeated soldiers hugging each other to keep warm.

"Last night, the Qin army captured the Shouchun city wall."

The belief that has always supported them no longer exists!

What else can I do?

When this battle reaches this level, asking Bai Qi to take charge may not be useful. Only Liu Xiu can come forward to have a chance of a comeback!

Taking a deep breath of the cold air, Xiang Yan said bitterly: "Throw away your armor and take off your armor! Keep running!"

Jingchou said sadly: "I'm afraid our soldiers and horses can no longer run."

Xiang Yan's soldiers and horses have been running continuously for six days. Their physical strength has already reached the limit and they cannot run at a faster speed.

Compared to Ying Chengyu's troops, their speed is indeed faster.

But if Wang Jian sends out his fresh troops to chase them, they won't be able to escape at all!

Moreover, the fall of Shouchun City was a huge psychological blow to Xiang Yan's soldiers.

Without the support of Xing Qi'er, these soldiers may have lost the motivation to continue running.

Xiang Yan said calmly: "You can run as much as you can."

"If they can't escape, I will allow them to surrender." "When the king blames me, I will bear all the blame!"

All the generals looked at Xiang Yan in shock.

Ordinary soldiers have either died in battle or have sneaked away.

Those who can follow them till now are relatives of the nine clans of each general.

Xiang Yan's order gave the children of all ethnic groups a way out at the cost of heavier guilt on his own shoulders!

Jingchou immediately handed over his hand: "Thank you Shangzhuguo!"

"We should all bear in mind the kindness of Shangzhu Kingdom!"

All the remaining generals also raised their hands: "Thank you Shangzhuguo!"

"The final general will definitely lobby the clan to speak favorably for the Shangzhu Kingdom!"

Xiang Yan squeezed out a smile and returned the greeting: "Thank you all."

"There is not enough time, please generals to send orders to all ministries immediately."

"Our army has no time to rest and will continue to advance eastward immediately!"

All the generals raised their hands in unison: "Wei!"
-

Throwing away one's armor is often used to describe a tragic defeat.

But in fact, throwing away one's armor is as smart as a gecko's tail being cut off!

As Xiang Yan issued the order to remove his helmet and armor, a large amount of top-quality equipment exploded on the battlefield, dazzling the eyes of all the Qin troops.

"My Dashui! It's a fine armor!"

"Look at this knife! It's inlaid with gold!"

"Gold is precious. Look at this armor. It's decorated with beautiful jade!"

Seeing the top-quality equipment all over the ground, Wang Jian's Qin army suddenly couldn't move.

Instead of expending great efforts and taking great risks to chase a group of enemy soldiers, why not bend down and pick up a piece of gold?

The defecting troops under Ying Chengyu swarmed towards the armored weapons like greedy hounds.

If the military magistrate hadn't been behind them, these rebels would have fought without hesitation!

This is all money!

Looking from the messy battlefield to the running Chu army, Yang Duanhe said with a smile on his face: "The last general wanted to invite a partial army to reinforce Chang'an Jun's headquarters."

"But now it seems that Lord Chang'an won the victory earlier than our troops."

"Jun Chang'an, you are worthy of being the Lord of Chang'an!"

Wang Jian smiled happily: "It is indeed the great fortune of the Qin Dynasty to have Lord Chang'an, and it is also our great fortune."

"Let's go, follow this general out of the city to meet you!"

Leading hundreds of soldiers, Wang Jian, Yang Duanhe and other generals all left the city and headed to the west.

Soon, a large banner appeared in front of the generals.

Wang Jian sat on his horse, smiled and cupped his hands: "I heard that Lord Chang'an won a great victory."

"I will congratulate you on Chang'an!"

Ying Chengjian rode his horse up to Wang Jian and returned the salute with a smile: "The king's general defeated Qu Huan's troops and captured Shouchun, the old capital of Chu. The remnants of the Chu army had no way to enter the city, so they had to continue to flee in panic."

"I would also like to congratulate you, General Wang!"

All the generals on both sides laughed heartily.

The two armies achieved decisive victories on two battlefields at the same time and severely damaged the Chu army. This allowed the generals on both sides to maintain extremely high enthusiasm and confidence in this battle.

After a brief exchange of greetings, Wang Jian said directly: "There are about 13,000 remaining soldiers under Yin Huan of Chu Zuo."

"There are about four thousand remaining soldiers from Shangzhu State of Chu."

"Just now, these two soldiers and horses have completed the joining of forces, discarded their helmets and armor, left behind their tired soldiers and continued to run away."

"The general only sent the troops who had just attacked the city to continue the pursuit, and did not send fresh troops to pursue them."

Ying Chengqiao thought for a moment and understood Wang Jian's plan: "General Wang, are you planning to take advantage of the situation and pursue us?"

Since Wang Jian deliberately did not use fresh troops, he was obviously not planning to pursue the Chu army, but was preparing to drive it away!

Wang Jian nodded and said: "The food and grass in Da Qin is enough to support our army for several more months of fighting."

"And the food stored in Shouchun City is enough to support our army's campaign for more than a month."

"Such a great opportunity to attack Chu, I thought I couldn't miss it!"

Ying Chengyu agreed without hesitation: "This is also what I want!"

"Previously, the King of Chu boldly sent troops to attack Qin. I will break through Shouchun City to report."

"This time the King of Chu carries Chu and sends troops to attack Qin again. I will break through Helu City again and make Chu pay the price with blood!"

When Ying Chengyu fought against Xiang Yan alone, he was still a little nervous and unsure of himself, so Ying Chengyu would subconsciously look for all available methods.

But two consecutive victories gave Ying Chengxuan confidence, and Wang Jian's arrival dispelled the last trace of worry in Ying Chengxuan's heart.

Come! Fight!

Whoever is a coward is a dog!

Wang Jian was stunned: "Mr. Chang'an, this battle for our country, Da Qin, is definitely not to destroy the country or destroy the capital."

"Your Majesty just ordered us to fight back the Chu army and try to collect some food and grass to reduce the pressure in the country."

"And now the State of Zhao is still at war with our army, and the pressure on General Yan's command is not small."

"The general intends to capture everything north of the Yangtze River, and has no intention of spying on Helu City!"

Wang Jian originally thought that Ying Chengyu, like him, was planning to capture Chu's grain-producing areas in order to take away Chu's grain reserves and relieve domestic grain pressure.

In the end, Ying Chengyu actually went to the capital of the Chu Kingdom?

There was no such plan before the war!

Your Majesty, please take care of him!
