Chapter 548 Lu Jin
Yishui, Yan army camp.
In the camp, military lieutenants, generals and staff were coming in and out, sorting out and conveying the latest information.
Dai Wangjia looked at Yan Dan, showing doubts.
"The Qin army is too fast! What do they want to do?"
At the end of the strong crossbow, the arrow cannot penetrate Lu's silk. Anyone who has studied the art of war understands this truth.
But now the Qin army's movements were so abnormal that they exceeded the awareness of the generals in the tent.
Marching at such a fast speed, the vanguard of the Qin army even reached the border of Yishui and built a water stronghold on the river bank.
For a time, everyone in the tent had their own guesses.
"Is it because the order from Xianyang was too urgent?"
"Or maybe the generals of this army are eager to make meritorious deeds."
"The composition of this army is complex. If it marches at such a fast speed, what kind of fighting power will it have when it reaches Yishui? Is General Qin just a playboy who doesn't know the art of war?"
…
Yan Dan said quietly, and after a while, he raised his head. For a moment, there was silence in the tent. Everyone who was noisy just now closed their mouths and listened quietly.
"Have you found out who the general is commanding the 70,000 Qin army?"
The generals remained silent. In such a short period of time, Yan Jun's spies had no time to investigate.
Yan Dan felt a little annoyed and hammered the table with his hand.
Upon hearing this, all the generals knelt on the ground. In this tent, only Dai Wangjia was still standing. Dai Wangjia slowly walked to Yan Dan and patted his shoulder.
"I have released all the spies, don't worry!"
"wrong!"
Yan Dan murmured and shook his head. Ever since he learned that Zhao Shuang was no longer on the front line, Yan Dan had always felt uneasy in his heart.
"The Qin army is brave, but they are not fools. No matter how powerful the army is, what else can it do if it marches at such a fast speed?"
"Perhaps the other party just wants to seize the opportunity and intimidate the Yan State. Isn't this the usual method of the Qin people?"
Dai Wangjia's words made Yan Dan feel at ease. He raised his head and said something.
"Additional pie..."
Before Yan Dan finished speaking, there was a commotion outside the big tent.
"What's the fuss about?"
Making unreasonable noise in the military is against military orders, but now, the level of noise outside has exceeded the normal range.
Yan Dan and Dai Wangjia hurried out of the tent, opened the tent door and saw smoke billowing into the sky.
"That direction is..."
Yan Dan and Dai Wangjia glanced at each other and saw a trace of anxiety on each other's faces.
"Quickly organize the army!"
The beacon fire was raging in the sky, and all the Yan army's beacons were burning in the hundreds of miles.
On the ground, smoke and dust billowed, and a group of light cavalry quickly crossed in the east-west direction, heading straight for the Yan army's camp.
In the territory of a hundred miles, the Yan army's heavily armored troops, mainly infantry, could not catch up, and could only watch the Qin army intersperse in Yan's defense zone.
"General, the Yan army has assembled its troops."
On the bank of Yishui River, in front of the Yan army's camp, Yan Dan's guards have gathered.
Li Xin rode on the horse, leaving only his galloping figure and his bold smile.
"That saves you the trouble."
The elite troops of the Yan Army are distributed along the Great Wall. The 500-mile Yishui Great Wall is fortified everywhere, so what can a hundred thousand Yan troops do?
But now, Li Xin used his light cavalry to make a roundabout way and stabbed straight into the heart of the Yan army. In fact, the situation of the Yan Army at this time was just as Li Xin expected. The second-line troops behind the Great Wall were very relaxed.
The Yan army did not expect that they, who were transporting grain and grass supplies to the front line from the rear, would encounter the most elite troops of the Qin army head-on.
"Formation!"
In the Yan Army formation, Yan Dan looked at the Qin Army troops in front and felt very nervous. Because he didn't know what the outcome of this collision would be?
Although Yan Dan's guards are elite, they are not many in number after all. A round of feather arrows flew out, unable to hinder Li Xin's flying army at all.
Before the second round of arrows was fired, Qin Qi was already approaching.
The army was vast and the galloping horses were neighing and roaring.
Li Xin's flying army is the elite of the Qin army, and its weapons and equipment are all top-notch.
The Qin general who was at the forefront was extremely brave. The formation of the Yan Dynasty Allied Forces was easily knocked out of a hole under its attack.
"Who is that General Qin?"
Dai Wangjia roared as if he wanted to tear the Qin general into pieces. The Qin army only had thousands of light cavalry, but Dai Wangjia's guard was defeated by its impact.
At this moment, Dai Wangjia was very heartbroken. After the fall of Zhao State, Dai State's own finances were quite tight. Under such circumstances, resources will naturally be tilted.
But now, Dai Wangjia spent a small amount of money to arm his elite troops, but they are being slaughtered.
"General Li Xin!"
Yan Dan said in a deep voice, feeling fearful in his heart. Li Xin's commanding skills were very superb, and the bank of Yishui almost became a battlefield for him alone.
The army of Yan Dynasty was no match for his Qingqi. Li Xin became more and more courageous as he fought. Under the attack of him and his flying army, the two armies of Yan Dynasty were disintegrating layer by layer, and could only barely maintain their formation.
At this moment, a shout came from Yan Dan's ear.
"Your Highness, look!"
To the east and west, the smoke started rising again.
Different from the urgency in the northwest direction just now, the warning in that direction is more serious.
"Why is there still a Qin army?"
Yan Dan was shocked, but at the same time, this abnormal scene also affected the Yan Dynasty coalition forces that were facing Li Xin, accelerating their defeat.
"His Royal Highness, withdraw your troops quickly!"
Dai Wangjia said loudly. Before his army is exhausted, conserving strength is the best choice. After all, Dai Jun is not as powerful as Yan Jun.
"Capture Yan Dan alive!"
There was a shout among the Qin army, and then the sound surged like a wave.
Capturing Yan Dan is a great military achievement.
At this time, the situation ahead was already one-sided.
"withdraw!"
Yan Dan spoke, and Dai Wangjia breathed a sigh of relief.
"Quickly retreat!"
…
Qin army camp.
A group of generals gathered, and Wang Jian sat behind the commander's case, waiting.
"General, the scouts are here to report that there is a sudden movement of the Yan army on the side of the Great Wall."
"The military plane has arrived!"
The Yan army originally guarded the Yishui Great Wall tightly. But now, the reason for the abnormality can only be one thing, and that is chaos in the rear.
After Wang Jian learned about it, he immediately issued the order without a trace of hesitation. When the Qin army's military exploits reach the level of generals, they are no longer judged by the number of beheadings, but by the entire army.
The achievement of destroying a country is the most important military achievement.
"The most important thing in military strategy is to attack the heart. Now that the Yan army is in chaos, it is a good opportunity. Put the best soldiers first, and the army behind. Generals, break the Great Wall and go straight to the capital of Yan."
In Wang Jian's view, the current 500-mile-long Yishui Great Wall is so fragile that even Lu Jin can't compare. If one area is breached, the whole line will collapse.
"promise!"
