On August 17th of the [-]th year of Wei Hou, on the day when the Qin Army's Liangdao was attacked, the Qin Army stationed in Anping City got the news.

Qin Jun had to respond to this, and found out who was robbing the food and grass in the rear. In fact, it was easy to guess that it was Wei Jun who did it.

Then, the Qin army began to mobilize troops, trying to kill the Wei army who had mixed in from the rear.

According to the information received from the rout of the soldiers who escorted the grain and grass, the general of the Qin army could easily know that it was the Qin cavalry who were responsible for the trouble.

This is a little troublesome. If you want to deal with such a cavalry, if you use infantry, you need a lot of troops, which is not feasible.

But if cavalry is used to strangle, it is necessary to mobilize the troops facing the Wei army ahead, which will put one's own side in a disadvantageous situation on the front battlefield.

Therefore, after thinking about it, the Qin army directly sent an urgent report to the capital Xianyang, asking the monarch to send cavalry to strangle the Wei army in the rear.

Although this is the case, the Qin side is not completely inactive. In order to suppress the troublesome Wei army in the rear, they contacted the Chu army in Xinle City, hoping that the other party would send troops to encircle and suppress the Wei army in Chendi.

Something happened to the allies, and the generals who arrived in Chu State knew about it, so they reacted quickly.

On the thirteenth day of the eighth month, [-] infantrymen of the Chu army left Xinle City and began to search for traces of the Wei army.

But both the people of Chu and Qin knew that this search method was useless except for its limited deterrent effect.

The Wei army is a cavalry soldier. Even if your infantry finds out where the opponent is, can you still catch up?
So in this situation, Fang Xuan and others survived without any pressure. They robbed part of the Qin army's food and grass for their own use, so there is no problem with the logistics for the time being.

On the Qin side, after a large amount of food and grass were destroyed, their more urgent task was to urge Xianyang to deliver food and grass to the front line as soon as possible, otherwise the battle would be impossible.

…………

When Wei Wuji received the news that Fang Xuanqi had won the victory, he immediately ordered his subordinates to spread the news.

He just wants to let those inside Changping Pass who are waiting to see the joke know that he has a lot to do outside Changping Pass.

Originally, Wei Wuji didn't need to compete with these people like this, but he still wanted to show it to the low-level military officials and soldiers to let them know that it was Wu Yangjun's victory.

Think about it!It was Wu Yangjun who advocated going out to fight against the enemy. Now Wu Yangjun has come up with his own results. What does this mean?
It means that Wu Yangjun is the legendary Wu Yangjun, invincible!
Outside Changping Pass, Wei Wuji also stayed here for seven days. During these seven days, he confronted the Qin army on the opposite side, and no one would take a step back.

To say that the people of Qin State can bear it, Wei Wuji sent people to scold Zhan every day, but the Qin people on the opposite side seemed to be deaf, and did not respond at all.

Even if he sends someone to scold him back and forth!Wei Wuji thought so.

Now the distance between the two armies has been extended to five miles. This is a relatively safe position for both sides, but in fact, this distance is still too close for the cavalry.

But at noon on August [-]th, a scout from the front reported that one of the cavalry of the Qin State on the opposite side had been drawn away from the captain's department.

After thinking about it for a while, Wei Wuji understood why. It must be used to besiege Fang Xuan and others. The people of Qin must not tolerate Fang Xuan's troops being presumptuous in the rear.

Therefore, in order to relieve Fang Xuan's pressure, Wei Wuji sent an order to Xu Guanxiao who was behind the formation, asking him to move the army forward five miles to a position parallel to his own army.

The reason for doing this is entirely to increase the pressure on the Qin people.

Aren't you withdrawing troops?
Okay, then we will increase our troops here!

Under such circumstances, General Qin hesitated after receiving the news, but he still decided to proceed with the original plan.

If the Wei people in the rear are not wiped out, the Qin army will not be able to deal with the Wei army in front wholeheartedly.Moreover, in the eyes of the generals of the Qin army, the Wei army had been stalemate for so long without making a move, and it was obvious that they were not ready for a big battle.

Seeing that his military pressure did not interfere with the Qin army, Wei Wuji was also a little entangled at this time. Should he just waste himself like this, or cause something bigger?
Soon, Wei Wuji chose the latter, and then he called Gao Yun over.

Gao Yun's 3000 men are all light cavalry, and it is perfect to tease the Qin army.

This style of play is similar to the guerrilla warfare of later generations. When the enemy is stationed, he will harass and harass the enemy, making the opponent restless.

But the difference is that Wei Wuji also told Gao Yun that if the Qin army sent troops to fight back, Gao Yun could decide whether to fight fiercely with it according to the situation.

What this means is that if the army sent by the Qin army is not strong enough, then the counterattacking Qin army can be dealt with.

Of course, Wei Wuji had the confidence to say this. He also took a look at the equipment of the cavalry of the Qin army, which was similar to that of the ordinary cavalry of the Wei state. With the small difference in strength, the Qin army had no chance of winning.

Then, Gao Yun took the order and left, and rushed away with great interest.

As far as Gao Yun is concerned, he also needs to make more military contributions, otherwise what would he use to compete with Fang Xuan?Competition is also ubiquitous in the military.

Not long after Gao Yun and his party were dispatched, the Qin army received the news, and then sent the same troops from the captain's department to deal with it.

In Qin Jun's view, this can only be a roundabout. They don't think Wei Jun will attack in an all-round way, but Qin Jun is still in a state of combat readiness.

Gao Yun really didn't expect that the Qin army would only send so many people, so he directly ordered the whole army to speed up the attack.

Since Wei Wuji agrees to go first, he is not afraid to poke the sky out of the hole, and defeating the Qin cavalry who rushed out became his choice.

Under the unpreparedness of the two armies, this relatively small-scale cavalry battle broke out, and the cavalry on both sides collided.

Now it's time for the Wei army to act fiercely. Their armor is more than a star and a half better than that of the Qin army, and the Qin army's bows and arrows can hardly cause damage.

This means that the cavalry of the Wei army only needs to hold the saber in their hands to reap their lives, and their iron sabers also restrain the bronze sword in the hands of the Qin army to death.

The myth of Wu Yang's army in the northern grasslands was staged again. Even Qin's elite cavalry was pierced like rags in front of Wei's army.

Under this charge, nearly one-third of the three thousand Qin troops that attacked fell, and at the same time the fighting spirit of the entire army was also defeated.

Many of the soldiers of the Qin army who were alive had a fear of the soldiers of the Wei army behind them at this time. They were simply invincible opponents!

What can be done?Of course he escaped!
Although this was what he meant, of course it was impossible for the captain of the Qin army to say so, but ordered to retreat.Although it is essentially the same, at least it sounds better.

So, when Gao Yun and his men lined up again, they found that their opponent had fled back.

Now things are going to explode, Qin Jun never thought that there would really be a fight between the two armies, the most important thing is that he still lost so badly!
As a result, the situation suddenly became tense, and the remaining Qin army, under the command of its chief general, began to slowly march towards Wei Wuji's side beating the drums.

After all, it was an army of more than 1 people marching. Of course, Gao Yun was not confident enough to think that he could stop it, and then decisively decided to retreat.

Wei Wuji in the rear saw the Qin army advancing, so he ordered the whole army to enter combat readiness, and at the same time sent someone to notify Xu Guanxiao to make complete preparations.

The situation outside Changping Pass changed instantly, and a big battle seemed to be coming. The nearly [-] Qin Wei army started the most intense confrontation since the confrontation.

However, when most of the Qin army was only three miles away from the Wei army, their chief general gave an order to stop advancing.

After careful discussion, the generals of the Qin army decided to be patient, and then asked the chief general in the rear for instructions.

The reason why they made such a decision was because they had no confidence in defeating the Wei army on the opposite side, and their rationality made them stop at the right time.
