Chapter 946 The Disappearance of the Great Wall Garrison Corps [Subscription*Monthly Ticket Request]

The battle between Bingzhou and Donghu ended with the Red Flame Cavalry vanguard cutting down the flag of the White Deer King of Donghu.

The King of Donghu died of illness, the Donghu General Bai Qingshan committed suicide, and the Donghu Prime Minister drank poison and committed suicide.

The Donghu tribes surrendered.

Bingzhou captured more than 120,000 Donghu soldiers.

It completely declared that the Donghu had become history.

Bingzhou divided its troops to occupy the entire territory of Donghu.

"Pass on my order, the Red Flame Cavalry, march quickly and occupy the first line of the Great Wall as soon as possible!"

Although the war was over, military operations continued.

The Great Wall must be in the hands of Bingzhou, otherwise the initiative in future wars will fall into the hands of the Qin people.

This is also the reason why Meng Tian ordered a full-scale attack on Donghu after the fall of Yangcheng.

The Great Wall serves as the dividing line between the grassland and the Central Plains of China. Whoever occupies the Great Wall will gain the initiative in the war.

Therefore, it is impossible for the Great Wall of Yan to be handed over to the Qin army.

Most importantly, Yan Yan had ordered the occupation of the Hushan Great Wall before leaving the royal city.

After this order was issued layer by layer, it meant that the Eastern Army must occupy the Great Wall before the Qin Army.

The news of the fall of Donghu also reached Beiye Royal City, Xianyang, Jicheng and the Qin army front at the first time.

"Still a step too slow!" Wang Jian sighed.

He knew the importance of the Great Wall.

Failure to seize the Great Wall before Bingzhou means that the pressure on them to guard the border will increase several levels in the future, and they may even have to rebuild a new Great Wall.

"What on earth is Yan State doing?" Wang Jian withdrew his gaze.

After they captured Yangcheng, they marched quickly, trying to seize the Great Wall before Bingzhou, but they did not expect to encounter any resistance at all. They fought all the way to the Yishui River without encountering the powerful Great Wall garrison corps.

But even so, they still failed to capture the Great Wall before Bingzhou.

It was also because the 50,000 troops of the Yan State's Great Wall garrison corps never appeared on the front battlefield, so even though the Qin army won victory after victory, it did not dare to advance quickly.

That is an absolutely elite force for decisive battles. It might be fine if you haven't seen it, but who would dare to be careless after seeing it?
However, even the Luowang, which was known to be all-pervasive, could not find any trace of the 50,000-strong army after the battle of Yangcheng. It seemed that the 50,000-strong army had disappeared out of thin air.

"Shicheng and Yishui!" Wang Jian looked at the last gateway of Yan State. After taking Shicheng and crossing Yishui, they would reach the capital of Yan State.

The brave and battle-hardened Great Wall garrison corps was most likely hiding in the stone city.

This was also the main reason why Wang Jian hesitated to cross the Yishui River and attack Shicheng.

In order to capture the State of Yan, the Qin army has allocated a lot of troops from Yangcheng to Shicheng to capture the southern cities of the State of Yan.

Now, before the army that had been sent out came back, he really didn't want to touch Shicheng at all.

If the Great Wall garrison suddenly attacks when the two sides are fighting fiercely, he is not sure whether there are enough troops to withstand the surprise attack of the Great Wall garrison.

"What is Wang Jian afraid of?" Ju Wu, who retreated to Shicheng Yishui, was also confused.

It was unusual that the Qin army did not pursue the victory. "They are probably worried about General Fan and Yan Chunjun's Great Wall garrison!" The other generals could guess what Wang Jian was thinking.

After all, behind Shicheng is Jicheng. If the Great Wall garrison corps does not show up, then we can only fight to defend the royal city.

It is foolish to let a decisive battle force mainly composed of cavalry fight a city defense battle.

So it is normal for Wang Jian to have such concerns.

However, it was not just Wang Jian who was confused about the movements of the Great Wall Garrison Corps. Ju Wu and the last generals of the Yan State also did not know where the Great Wall Garrison Corps was.

This was also done intentionally by King Xi of Yan. The network had penetrated into every high-ranking official of Yan State, and the high-ranking officials of Yan State were also riddled with holes.

But if even the State of Yan itself did not know where the Great Wall garrison was, how would Luo Wang know?
Hei Bai Xuan Jian was also under a lot of pressure. The movements of the Great Wall garrison corps were of paramount importance to the army. However, he had dispersed all the Luowang spies and still couldn't find them.

"General Gongsun, can you ask the Bingzhou Military Control Commission to help investigate the movements of the Great Wall Garrison Corps?" Hei Bai Xuan Jian had no choice but to meet Gongsun Nu.

"You know, although the Military Control Commission will provide intelligence to the army, it is not directly under the command of the general's office in each town, but directly under the emperor and empress. Therefore, I am not qualified to mobilize the Military Control Commission!" Gongsun shook his head angrily.

It's not that he can't mobilize the Military Intelligence Bureau. With his qualifications and connections, he can still ask the Military Intelligence Bureau to help investigate. But the Military Intelligence Bureau is an intelligence agency after all, and as foreign generals, it is better for them not to have too much contact with it.

What's more, there is no need for him to sacrifice his future for the Qin State.

"Then, according to General Gongsun's guess, where will this Great Wall garrison corps go?" Hei Bai Xuan Jian did not expect Gongsun Nu to ask the Military Control Commission to help him.

After all, he was a layman when it came to war, and Gongsun Nu was unwilling to contact intelligence agencies. As one of the intelligence chiefs of Qin, he also didn't want to have too much contact with people like Wang Jian. Therefore, asking Gongsun Nu for advice was his best choice.

He also asked Gongsun Nu to help him analyze the direction, and then he sent out Luowang's spies to search.

"If we can't find it in Shicheng, then there's no need to think about Jicheng!" Gongsun Nu thought about it. After this battle, he had his own guesses.

Because the final kings of each country seem to have something in common.

In Prince Xi of Yan, he saw the shadow of Prince An of Han, which was to give up!

Deliberately playing badly to preserve strength, preserve the country and the people.

Therefore, Gongsun Nu guessed that King Xi of Yan most likely ordered Yan Chunjun and Fan Yuqi to withdraw to Jizi Korea with the Great Wall garrison corps.

Given the complex, poor, mountainous and water-restricted terrain of Gojoseon, it would probably not be easy for the Qin army to pursue them.

What's more, he knew that Yan State had a way out.

Therefore, compared to the Qin State, as the General Zhennan, one of the four generals of Bingzhou, Gongsun Nu had much more intelligence about the Yan State than the Qin State.

"It's neither in Shicheng nor in Jicheng, so where else could it be?" Heibai Xuan Jian asked with a frown.

Even though he didn't understand military affairs, he knew that if even Jicheng was abandoned, then what was the purpose of this army coming?
"Then let's guess. After all, the Great Wall Garrison Corps is the army led by Fan Yuqi and Yan Chunjun for many years. Wouldn't it be fine for Luowang to keep an eye on these two people?" Gongsun Nu still gave Hei Bai Xuan Jian a direction.

"Is this possible?" Hei Bai Xuan Jian was stunned.

Prince Xi of Yan had just deprived Yan Chunjun and Fan Yuqi of their leadership of the Great Wall garrison corps. What was the point in keeping an eye on these two people?

"That's all I have to say. Believe it or not!" Gongsun Nu did not continue.

Hei Bai Xuan Jian bowed and left Gongsun Nu's tent, returned to his own base, thought about it, and decided that since he had no direction, he might as well give it a try. What if?
Therefore, Hei Bai Xuan Jian still sent people to keep an eye on Yan Chunjun and Fan Yuqi.
