Qin Shi: Beginning as the first emperor's younger brother

Chapter 198 The Lonely Shadow in the Heavy Snow
The allied forces of Han and Wei were defeated and retreated to Sanyang Guandao.

The siege of Kuicheng was temporarily relieved.

The moment Wang Ben saw Ying Yuan, he let go of his uneasiness and bowed his head, "Brother, when I heard about you on the way here, I was extremely worried and indignant. Fortunately, I see that you are safe now."

It was a pity that Bai Yifei could not be killed in this battle.

After all, Ying Yuan has a great chance.

But when he was about to catch up with the opponent, his wound burst open again, the pain was unbearable, and he couldn't continue to chase, thus, Bai Yifei was able to escape his life.

"When will Master and his old man arrive?"

Ying Yuan forced a smile on his face.

In fact, he is almost unable to hold on now because of his injury.

But he didn't dare to lie down and rest, he was afraid that if he fell asleep, it would be difficult to get out of bed every ten days and a half months.

"Father estimates that it will take about ten days to arrive in Kuicheng."

Wang Ben responded.

This marching speed is not too slow.

Ying Yuan nodded contentedly. He was already unable to command the army to fight. If Wang Jian came here, everything would be safe.

After all, the veteran's combat command experience is far superior to his. Now that the Qin and Han battlefields have unfolded, he is very relieved to hand over the power of commanding the army to Wang Jian.

"You follow me to Yewang City. As for Sunflower City, I will leave it to the end of Ji for the time being."

Ying Yuan patted Wang Ben's shoulder.

The latter didn't hesitate, got on his horse and prepared to follow him to the wild king.

At this moment, Ji Mo said worriedly: "Master Hou, your body"

It would take at least a day or so to go to Yewang City, and he was afraid that Ying Yuan would not be able to hold on.

Wang Ben also sensed that something was wrong with Ying Yuan's condition, and asked, "Brother, I heard that you were seriously injured before you came here. Is it true that you haven't recovered yet? Do you have any plans to go to Yewang City? Yes. Tell the younger brother, the younger brother can go alone."

Hearing the sound, Ying Yuan said stubbornly: "It's okay, what is this little injury?"

After all the words, he rode away in a hurry.

Seeing this, Wang Ben hastily selected hundreds of cavalry soldiers and went with him. Before setting off, Ji Mo couldn't help but exhorted: "General, Lord Hou is seriously injured. If anything goes wrong, please turn back immediately, or seek medical treatment on the spot, and I will ask the doctor to go with you."

Wang Ben nodded and said, "Okay, don't worry, I will pay attention."

They didn't dare to persuade Ying Yuan, because as one of the closest people around him, they knew very well that once he decided to do something, he would definitely do it.

No matter how many difficulties and obstacles you encounter, you will not hesitate.

This kind of spirit has actually been driving the soldiers of the Qin army forward.

The world worships young heroes, and the existence of Ying Yuan is a hero to the entire Qin army.

Hundreds of riders galloped together in the vast and endless prairie, their minds suddenly became wider, as if they could take the whole world into their eyes.

"Wang Ben, this Marquis was in Handan, Zhao State when he was young. He went through hardships. At that time, if he was a little careless, he would be killed. In order to avoid our enemies, I once hid in a pigsty with my elder brother and climbed over a dog. Dong was also severely bullied.

That year, my great-grandfather, King Zhaoxiang, passed away, and my brother and I returned to Xianyang together. However, our mentor and Suzaku’s mother, who had been with us for many years, died unexpectedly because of some people with ulterior motives.

It was also at that time that I made a great vow in my heart to assume authority. I was once stunned by hatred and made big mistakes because of emotions, but I never regretted it.

Killing Lu Buwei, fighting all over the world, he has never been defeated in his life, but he never thought that he would be defeated by this incompetent junior, Hou Bai Yifei in blood. "

On the way to Yewang City, Ying Yuan deliberately slowed down and talked to Wang Ben about some old stories.

To him, Bai Yifei can only be regarded as a military junior.

After all, in the eyes of the existing soldiers, he is as famous as Zhao Guolianpo, Chu Guoxiang Yan and other generals.

"Senior brother, victory or defeat is a common matter in military strategists, so you don't need to worry too much about it."

Wang Ben felt that he was extremely depressed now, and he didn't know how to comfort him, so he immediately showed a embarrassed look.

In fact, before this battle, he had already figured out the cause and effect of the battle. Ying Yuan was not to blame for the defeat and siege at all, but Li Tong was to blame for being too slow in attacking Yewang City.

If Ying Yuan and Li Tong switch positions, it may be hard to say whether they will win or lose.

It was already early the next morning when we arrived at Yewang City.

If they had marched all the way in a hurry, they should have arrived here last night, but Ying Yuan's body couldn't hold it anymore and needed to rest.

But he didn't dare to sleep, and spent the whole night sitting cross-legged, concentrating and calming down.

I'm afraid that after falling asleep, I won't be able to open it again in a short time.

After Ying Yuan arrived at Yewang City, Li Tong greeted him in person. He looked at the former with tears in his eyes, and fell to his knees on the ground, crying, "The final general has the high hopes of Lord Hou. During the time when Lord Hou was seriously injured and surrounded , but don't want to rescue him, please punish him!"

Seeing his sincerity, Ying Yuan's heart softened for a while.

He came to Yewang originally because he wanted to raise his teacher to question him.

However, Li Tong's attitude made him very useful, after all, he was an old man who had been by his side for many years.

"You have done a good job. If it were Benhou, he would make the same decision as you."

Ying Yuan who said these words sighed.

He originally thought that Li Tong would be able to rely on his own talent to take a different path from his own.

But now it seems that he has become his second self.

This is also the reason why Ying Yuan wanted to question him. After all, there can only be one champion in this world.

Li Tong wanted to host a banquet, but Ying Yuan declined.

"Stay here carefully. When Old General Wang Jian arrives at the front line, you will be under his command. Do you hear me clearly?"

Ying Yuan said solemnly.

Li Tongning nodded, "Master Hou, don't worry, I will definitely help the old general win this battle."

He was a little puzzled.

Logically speaking, even if the reinforcement commander arrives, the old general will coordinate and command the army with Lord Hou. Why does Lord Hou have the plan to delegate power?

"Don't put too much pressure in your heart. Being able to capture Yewang City means that you have enough ability to lead an army alone in the future."

Ying Yuan's words were probing.

Li Tong thought for a moment, and said bluntly: "The last general only wants to follow Lord Hou all the time."

Hearing this, Ying Yuan was satisfied.

He came to inspect the top of the city, made some adjustments to the defensive layout of the city, and then said to Li Tongyu earnestly: "Taking the Yewang City is not for you to defend it, this city is the main way for the three rivers to gather together , Entering Xinzheng in the south and rejecting Yanzhao in the north, the strategic significance is particularly special.

After the reinforcements arrive, the Marquis will ask the old general to send you some troops. If possible, you can take the opportunity to go south to attack Xingyang and Chenggao, and then take Xinzheng directly. It can be said that there is a long way to go. Do you have the confidence? "

Li Tong knelt down on one knee, and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty has an order, and he will not refuse to die."

After waiting for a while, Ying Yuan left Yewang City, and Li Tong rode a fast horse to see him off.

At this time, it suddenly snowed heavily.

But for a while, between the heaven and the earth, it seems to be wrapped in silver.

Snow like goose feathers flutters and falls, adding a bit of coldness to the world.

Looking at the flying snow in the sky, Ying Yuan felt relaxed and happy, and said to the people around him, "This Marquis is alone to relax, so don't come with me."

After the words fell, he faced the wind and snow and slowly drove to the distance.

Everyone behind him was staring at his back.

They felt that the figure from the back was a bit bleak, but also a bit majestic.

Dark clouds cover the sky.

It was raining and snowing.

Ying Yuan traveled farther and farther.

He looked up at the sky above his head, his mind was deep, as if he was thinking about something.

The figure began to shake.

"For more than ten years, I have accomplished feats that are difficult for others to accomplish in a lifetime. Is this an amazing period of time for me?"

"However, this is not enough. I still have a farther and bigger journey to complete. How can I stop like this?"

Mouth began to murmur.

At this time, the ink clouds in the sky seemed to form the shape of a pen and a book.

It seems that God is using his own way to record his achievements.

Gradually, Ying Yuan sat on the horse's back, and his consciousness began to blur.

However, the corners of the mouth were always drawn with a curve.

Not long after, he fell heavily off his horse. Before he passed out, what he saw in his eyes was the vast sky.

That was his journey of thousands of miles.

He slowly closed his eyes.

The soldiers who stood far away and didn't dare to disturb him saw the scene where he fell off the horse, their faces were all pale with fright, and they hurried forward
